All About the Money

I really don't understand why this film is surrounded around so many negative reviews? It's not meant to be taken seriously! The film itself has a solid storyline from start to finish with the filming leading on for a follow up film. The acting is food, its also action packed and the spoof comedy will have you crying with laughter. I would definitely be watching the follow up film if one is made

The first scene of the movie has the three main characters cowering for their lives, while being shot at by attractive, leather clad lady, holding two silenced machine guns. The film then goes into a flashback and about twenty minutes (all the bits before they get off the plane) later I'm wishing they been shot and the film had ended there. The plot is far fetched; an average guy, whose life is not going anywhere, takes his two best friends to Colombia and convinces them to take on a drug boss , without much of a second thought besides the Money.

OK, they did a lot with a small budget. I can't imagine a well known actor like Danny Trejo came cheap, the location shots are well put together and the action scenes do flow well. The supporting cast make this film: Ashley A. Thomas (Maria Garcia) and Jose Yenque (Juan Garcia) play the roles of a sadistic drug family well, while Gabriel Pimentel and his Hotel associates add a touch of surrealism that seemed to be improvised in parts. The manic Marine - which all films where Americans looking for support in foreign countries need to go - is suitably crazy, with a satirical edge.

For me, the constant swearing and racism did get dull, to the degree it got batted away as tourettes at one stage. The main characters keep thinking they're in Mexico, not Colombia and half expected one of them to echo Johnny Depps line from Once Upon A Time In Mexico to Trejo: "Are you a Mexican or a Mexicant". He probably would have pinned them to the wall with a massive knife for saying it!

I watched this on my phone, while heading to work, and it helped pass the time, but I doubt I'd sit down with friends to watch it again.

Did casper van dien even read the script before accepting this? He had a pretty big hit in starship troopers in 1997, but made a real mix of good ones and clunkers after that. Blake freeman wrote, directed, and acts in this, and it's not usually a good sign when the same person does all that. Lots of stereotype jokes, and talk of racism. Chris, vince, and kurt take a trip to colombia to claim the reward for bringing in a drug lord. They aren't even sure where colombia is. Clearly they are in way over their heads! Low budget. Cheesy script. The story itself isn't bad, but it's just not that fun to watch. Many, many stoner jokes. You'll recognize danny trejo! With his rugged looks, he's in every drug and mafia movie made. The fighting in the center part actually isn't bad. But the beginning and the ending are just silly. It looks like they rented a mansion in los angeles for a week to film this. Entertaining.. i guess.

This comedy would have been much better without Blake Freeman in the cast. He should have stuck to directing.

Not a great story and not a great script. Relies heavily on profanity, tripping, stupidity and chicks with dicks to get the laughs (and there are a few sprinkled throughout) but overall there are better ways to spend 90 minutes. Watch as a last resort or when you need to get off to sleep.
