Cash is not a bad movie itself, but the plot seems somewhat factitious - as the activities take place in the present U.S. where you can hardly find shops without security cameras, or easy opportunities to drive around without number plates... And the choices made by the couple seem odd as they did not obtain the money through crime or gambling. Constant calculations and amounts become soon a pain in the neck :)
Sean Bean is great as always, the other actors are nothing special... The movie is a good and adequately lengthy entertainment when there is nothing to do or the weather allows no outdoor activities. But it is definitely neither Michael Mann nor Guy Ritchie.

This is a movie that you watch, get some fun out of it and forget when it's over. And this is meant as a compliment.
We might argue what the purpose of cinema is, but Ca$h has an entertaining story with premises that are mostly believable. The cast delivers an overall decent performance. However, with less known actors it would have been just one of many B-movies.
Sean Bean is excellent and there is no need to elaborate on that. Chris Hemsworth reveals his limitations as an actor. When you see him in Ca$h you understand he's been a logical choice for the role of Thor which came out roughly a year later. Victoria Profeta was my treat in the movie. With her looks and skills i wonder where she'd been before and makes me ponder what it takes to make it in Hollywood.

Obsessive compulsive behavior can be hazardous to your health even if you're a bad guy like Sean Bean. This is one of the oldest crime story ever told i.e. the straight guy ends up with the bad guys money and the bad guy wants it back. This one,however, has a twist: the bad guy is a number guy who has O.C.D. and will not settle for anything less than every penny he is owed. In the process he turns the straight guy and his wife into bad guys like himself. I really liked this movie even when it slowed down a little in the middle, because it was a trick they played on the audience. They were setting us up for a big change in the straight couple's character and a surprise ending. There were little flaws in the movie like; Bean practicing Yoga and smoking like chimney,calling the Illinois DMV the Chicago DMV,and a cop-out repayment plan to some of the victims especially to their jerk of a banker. But, by and large this is a very good crime movie with an exceptional ending.
Not all movies are made to be artistic or masterpieces. This is just a random criminal/drama movie that can be entertaining depending on who's watching. It definitely has flaws but had a lot of unintentional weirdly funny scenes. It was an entertaining movie and that's it; nothing special. Still, the movie was a lot better than 80% of the crap movies these days that do half ass job trying to imitate classic movies from the 70' and the 80's.
The characters' dialogue script writing was a little amateurish but oh well.......
It's a good movie to pass free time!

I have to say this is not a bad movie at all, but I think it could be better. The movie starts with a good premise...a man who is driving down the highway suddenly finds a suitcase with more than half a millon dollars inside...what would you do? expend it? return it to the police? give it to the poor?. Unfortunately for him and his wife, he decided to expend it, only to find later on that the owner of the money has found him and wants the money back. Some of the things this man (Sean Bean) forced them to do are a little far fetched and have no sense at all. The script is far from being a master piece and the dialogues are flat, although the acting is really good, especially Sean Bean's performance. I think the director tried to mix comedy, thriller and action but failed to deliver any of them. I found the first hour of the movie very entertaining, but at the end, it got so repetitive that left me with a bittersweet taste. In conclusion, if you're looking for an entertaining movie, to watch on a Sunday afternoon, this could be it, but don't expect to see the best movie of your lives.
