Lady Killers

National Lampoon's Gold Diggers is a black comedy about two losers in their twenties, Calvin Menhoffer (Will Friedle) and Leonard Smallwood (Chris Owen), who are out to get the good life without working for it. The two young men try to rob two 70-year-old sisters, Betty Mundt (Renee Taylor) and Doris Mundt (Louise Lasser). The two sisters beat the two young men up, and send them to jail. The ladies drop the charges, and invite the jailbirds to their Beverly Hills mansion. Cal gets an idea that they could marry the women for their money and live the good life. Hopefully, they will only live 6-months and at most one-year. It turns out that Betty and Doris are broke, and they have come up with a plan to marry the boys, kill them, and collect the life insurance money. After several unsuccessful murder attempts on each other, they join forces to rob Betty and Doris's rich uncle. This film is funny, and you will laugh through the entire movie. One of the funniest scenes is what the women are wearing as they walk down the staircase to meet Call and Lenny. (Delfino Entertainment, Run time 1:27, Rated PG-13) (5/10)

wow National Lampoon's has gone downhill,, this one wasn't that great,, yeah you had some laughs and crude humor,, not enough skinny young girls running around,, this time we get to broke loser guys who don't wanna work,, they decide to marry these old grandmas,, thinking that they are loaded,, turns out grandma 1 and 2 are both broke,, and they wanna marry the boys so they can collect the life insurance money,, and there you go,, I won't spoil what little is left in the movie,, I really felt like I was ripped off by the cover on the DVD box if you're gonna put hot chicks on a cover,, then I wanna see them in the movie,, so yeah i'm probably not gonna watch this for another 15 years or so, terrible movie,, only the laughs make it a 2 instead of a 1

I'm a 43 year old father in a small Southern town. Just saying that so you will understand that I am not the target audience for this type of movie. I ignored it at the theater and had no plans to ever watch it. However, after enjoying National Lampoon's Dorm Daze, I figured I would give it a try at the rental store. I am glad I did.

The previews and such are not entirely truthful about this movie. It appears to be 2 young guys out to scam 2 older women. While it is that, it is also 2 older women out to scam 2 young guys who are some of the dumbest criminals ever. The "old women being sexy" angle is not played up nearly as much as you would think and rather than make fun of them, they seem to be making just as much fun of stereotypes.

This is not an Oscar movie or one with long lasting deep plots but it is a decent way to laugh on a rainy day. You will not split your sides laughing but the pace is good and the jokes funny rather than silly most of the time. While this is not a movie I am sorry I missed at the theater, and perhaps not one I will go out and buy, it was one that I enjoyed watching and felt well worth the rental. Just because the cover and premise seem so silly, don't just pass it by.

This is the most awful film I have ever seen.

Here in Denmark, where I'm from it called "Golddiggers", at the cover of the DVD-box you see "Shermanator" from American Pie and some other guy.. And a lot of Hot chicks. In the movie you see 2 Z-list actors read some bad jokes, while trying to score some seriously old females.

This movie is worse than bad and the cover is more than just plain misleading. Go walk your dog or make love to your girlfriend instead of wasting time at this.

If you are a really really really lousy actor, then see this film and get some confidence.. !! :D

Some friends and I were at Blockbuster over the weekend. None of us could agree on what film to see. We decided that no one was in the mood for anything really heavy or intellectual. Just some stupid movie to have a few laughs and possibly a few beers to. All of us had seen the really Obvious comedies or big films that you rent from the new release wall as defaults when you're in the mood to just watch some film that you don't have to think about with friends. So we saw the box for GOLDDIGGERS and thought "there are hot chicks on the cover, that kid from American PIE and BOY MEETS WORLD are in it. Its a national lampoon film. I'm sure it will provide some amusingly crude dick and fart jokes and occasional shots of tits and be on par with EURO-Trip as one of those utterly stupid films that you can just pop in and let your brain rust, chuckle occasionally, and kill an hour and a half of your night."

Seriously, this film makes Eurotrip seem academy award worthy. The screenplay isn't even worth picking apart. It is failed joke after failed joke after failed joke. And then, it becomes entirely disgusting. And not Cameron Dias with Cum in her hair SOMETHING ABOUT MARY disgusting where its FUNNY. this was just disgusting.

The basic premise of the film is that these 2 young screw ups try to seduce 2 elderly women. You can already guess how disgusting the sexual interactions already are.

And I wasn't expecting much from this film. I was really looking for 2 things: 1. Boobs. 2. Laughs.

1. The boobs were old and disgusting and by the time it got to cuter girls, I was already thuroughly disgusted 2. Few and far between and mostly at the fact that I actually shelled out 4 dollars to rent this piece of theatrical donk.

So note to all: don't bother renting stupid comedies that you've never head of and are shorter than 90 minutes or star c-list actors. Generally, there's a reason you've never heard of it. Did this even get a theatrical release? I would hope not.
