Great acting from Taja Simpson. Surprised she's not mainstream yet. Several actors that aren't so known but do a great job. Overall an entertaining film and worth the 90 minutes.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Baby Money is a good suspenseful movie with a great assembly of actors, like Danay Garcia, that portray complex characters. The film has good cinematography and scene selections that blend well with the acting. This movie keeps you involved all through out the film. I highly recommend Baby Money. It is a much watch!

This movie was action packed from the get go. Very creative opening credit scene and then, bam! Off and running. Performances by the entire cast were spot on. Danay Garcia (Minny)was phenomenal in her role as a tough girl on the outside, but portrayed the sweet, caring mother on the inside. This is definitely a must watch!

It stays in its lane (nothing too flashy) but brings something unique to the tone of the genre. Characters keep you hook for a very quick 93 minutes.

Baby Money is mostly concerned with its most boring entity, its male characters, who are so predictably violent, jealous, and doomed.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

Baby Money starts off with a bang, but the smoke dissipates long before things get interesting again.

You either buy what Bassilli and Walpoth are selling or you checkout the second you realize everything has grown stagnant by necessity.

Warped Perspective

Really, the film is about women realising their strengths. It's impossible not to like Minny and Heidi; it's impossible not to be utterly exasperated with the short-sighted stupidity and cruelty of the men.

Eye for Film

It's Simpson who delivers the standout performance, however, and in the process she elevates the film above routine thriller territory, putting everything into perspective.

Rated: 3.5/5

Film Threat

Baby Money is truly about its characters, thus no matter how exciting, it lives and dies by the acting. Luckily, the cast is up to the challenge.
