The comedy sits uneasily with the admittedly efficient action scenes, although at least here we have none of the usual Brooks sermonising to dilute the brew.

Warren Beatty and Goldie Hawn are weirdly interesting together. Their acting styles lie at right angles, so you get two textures in the same scene... This contrast in the acting really works.

Rated: 3/4

The result is a rather more complex and more interesting treatment than the type generally gets; qualities that work both for and against the film.

Better known for his serious dramas, Richard Brooks might not have bene the right choice for this minor and fluffy heist flick, but it stars Warren Beatty and Goldie Hawn, who are at their most physically appealing.

Rated: C+

Beatty and Hawn carry this fun little heist/comedy picture for the first hour, but then the whole affair gets a little tiring.

Clever, exciting story of safe deposit box heists. The two charismtic stars sell this flick. Warren Beatty is charming, affable, sneaky, and not as clever as he thinks he is. And best of all, Goldie Hawan, WOW, she is so stunning, so funny, so appealing. Only big demerit, is the editing. Really needed in the overlong foot chase sequence.

You know, I've never really liked Warren Beatty and then this movie — and several others on the Through the Decades: 1960s Collection like Lilith and Mickey One — totally changed my mind. A Hamburg, West Germany bank has privacy laws that are quite favorable to an entire rogue's gallery of criminals who need a place to keep their money safe from the government. Meanwhile, bank security consultant Joe Collins (Beatty) has been planning on stealing all of their cash along with sex worker Dawn Divine (Goldie Hawn). From there, the criminals — like Las Vegas mobsters, military men who've just made money off an illicit drug deal and a brutal killer known only as the Candy Man — start hunting Joe and Dawn for their money across nearly all of Europe. This was directed and written by Richard Brooks, who also wrote Key Largo and directed and wrote Blackboard Jungle, In Cold Blood and Waiting for Mr. Goodbar. This isn't as successful as those, but Beatty and Hawn have a fun chemistry and are both filled with such charm that I couldn't dislike this movie.

Dollars is a funny film. It is about a bank security expert plots with a call girl to rob three safety deposit boxes containing $1.5 million in cash. Goldie Hawn and Warren Beatty give excellent performances. The script is good but a little slow in places. Richard Brooks did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the humor and drama.
