I thought the movie would show how gentrification affects neighborhoods while being funny. Instead you get a mixture of messages that are just wrong. If this has a moral I'm not quite sure what that is. I did like certain scenes while others where harder to watch. Some ideas that worked were enjoyable. Sometimes the main actor does a good job but other times he struggles playing the character. The best actors in this movie dont have enough screen time.
Where's the Money is a goofy comedy that turns into Animal House meets racial commentary.
Del works in the family gym in southern California. Del's father and uncle left the proceeds from a bank robbery in the walls of a flop house before they ended up in jail. Del just needs to go into the ramshackle house and locate the money somewhere in the walls only to discover it has now become a frat house.
Del now has to pose as a student, take part in the frat house initiations and look for the money surreptitiously. The members of the fraternity happen to be all white and whose members try hard not to give racial offence to Del.
Pretty soon Del's uncle escapes from jail and comes looking for the money as well.
The film has game performances from the cast but is low on laughs. It benefits from a short running time. Terry Crews is wasted as the uncle.

I came across this movie and saw Logan Paul was in it. You could say he was the token white guy in this with not much to say. Mike Epps is always hilarious as he was in this. Some good laughs here. Not the best movie of it's kind. I wouldn't watch this again any time soon.
Seriously i had very high hopes for this movie but this movie absolutely disappointed me or maybe this not the type of comedy i like.
I loved the hints on racial slurs and the fraternity's fight to avoid breaking the law while going after the proceedings of accepting new members. Especially, the 'nerdy' frat boy Clarke (Josh Brener) is a contrast when it comes to catching up with trigger warnings about racism. I wish Kat Graham's character Alicia was more in action because I really enjoyed her scene with frat boy Brock (Devon Werkheiser). She can pull scenes that show her in charge so well. What I didn't expect was the on screen chemistry between Kat and Devon.
