Mad Money

This movie ...awe .. What a delicious comedy ..the three leading ladies are Smart,witty and gutsy. I believe that this is an updated version of the 1980 movie. "How To Beat the High cost of Living" that starred "Susan St James, Jane Curtain and Jessica Lange"..? First of all who doesn't dream of committing some knid of "Work related heist"..? First of all ..I wouldn't recommend it.. because that money is property of the Federal government and lastly rotting away in club fed ..isn't worth it..! The story line is fabulous and the coupling of the actor's ..fit like a glove. In the beginning the theft's are okay...it's only when they get .... more impulsive to ..STEAL ..more that they become suspect.. ? Has someone ever been able to pull off a theft this size before..? Yes ..back in the 1990's some Brink's Employees stole million's in cash ..they too got caught..! Ms. Keaton does a great job playing a high living house wife ..who's husband's debt's send's her to working at the Treasury department..because her maid can't secure work due to her criminal record.. The fact that she could convince "Queen Latifah's" character ,then Katie Holmes character into joining along in the risky endeavor is absolutely hilarious.. This is a must see ...for the family and friends... By the way ..I had the pleasure of meeting Diane Keaton and Queen Latifah many years ago in Los Angeles,Ca.. Both lovely ladies and extreme talents in the industry of film making..

❤️ Really enjoy this movie. Who doesn’t? Purchased digitally with no issues. I keep it on my Fire Tablet set at “good” quality. Outstanding viewing without flaws.On a side note... If you’re having problems with digital purchases., try. re-downloading it, make sure to clear the cache and check your Wi-Fi. As sometimes the quality may be poor if the first download was done when your WiFi was poor.And if your cache is not cleared it does make a difference. Same with computer and Fire Stick (Per my experience)I haven’t seen a difference between better and beat quality. Excellent purchase! Excellent value! I’m happy 😊

This is a light hearted Comedy about three women who work with the US Treasury destroying over used Bills. It stars Diane Keaton, Katie Holmes, and Queen Latifah and Ted Danson. This movie is perfect for the hard financial times we all seem to be going through lately. **SPOILER** Ted Danson’s character loses his job due to down sizing and Diane Keaton has to go back to work after many years out of the work force. The only job she can get is a janitor at the Federal Reserve Bank. There she meets Katie Holmes and Queen Latifah’s characters. Diane Keaton comes up with a plan to steal the money being destroyed. And then the fun begins. Grab a bowl of popcorn, a favorite drink and have a couple of hours of escape. I highly recommend this Movie.

Love the cast and characters. Three strong women from different backgrounds that come together to pull off the greatest heist that never happened. I enjoy that this movie also has a strong cast of male characters, but they aren't portrayed as dumb dupes or lumbering apes. They are all good men, but in supporting roles. I have watched this movie many times and will continue to for years to come.

I passed on this movie for quite some time, but covid-19 is making me desperate. I love the Queen and I unfortunately trusted the high number of stars indicating this movie would be worthwhile. I'm not as eloquent as some of the reviewers I've read before now writing mine, but trust them, this movie is a bomb and not worth the time it takes to watch.

Funny, Funny movie. Great entertainment. Good movie to share with a girl's movie night get-together. I have watched it many times and still enjoy it.

I love this movie, Well, it's Diane Keaton. The other two ladies are also great. I was able to get this signed by Diane Keaton herself.It's funny and in my family movies. I bought these DVD's and am gifting them with Diane's wine for Christmas. By the way, she is a lovelyperson in real life.

I watched this because I love anything with Diane Keaton. I enjoy watching Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes. I like light comedy to distract from all that we as a nation are going through.

So, this was an enjoyable movie, loved the performances from all three ladies...Katie, Diane and Queen Latifah. What stopped it from being a great movie, was the major difference between this version and the UK version HOT MONEY, which was vastly superior in every way. The key to the plot of the UK version was the ingenious way the women got around the fact that a black lock and a white lock were on the money cages. The key to the black lock was held by the chief of security and the key to the white lock was held by the UK version of the Queen Latifah character. In this version as far as I can see one gold lock was on the money cage. Diane Keaton's character, a housewife with no experience of much in particular is wandering around her local hardware store and somehow thinks all she has to do is get hold of a different gold lock and thats it !!! They swop them at will. If it was that easy, the money would have been robbed years before. Thats what let it down so much. No real thought was put into this most vital part of the plot and as this movie was a later version of the superior UK version, why they did not go down the same route and show us the ingenious Black/White lock drama I will never know. By the way the UK version is not available on DVD but is available in full on Youtube. I recommend it to anyone !!

Really funny. Diane Keaton is hilarious & Queen Latifah is great.

Always loved this flim

Really enjoyable film

This movie had me riveted from the start. At no time could I have guessed at the twists and turns it would take. Even the ending is great and unexpected. Just when I thought it had ended there was more to come and it packed a punch. Great entertainment. I highly recommend it and look forward to watching it again.
