Critics Consensus

Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays a doofus with entertaining savvy in Greedy People, a shaggy crime comedy that welcomes unflattering comparisons to better examples of the genre.

Peter Bradshaw

Guardian

It’s not a bad premise by any means, but a noir romp, however bizarre and farcical, surely has to take place in a recognisably real world where there are plausibly real constraints on people’s behaviour.

Rated: 2/5

Does it make any sense? No. But I was cracking up from scene to scene.

It doesn’t always work, but it more often than not hits its target, thanks to the performances and an unexpected ending.

Rated: 2.5/4

It's a shame that the final result is not greater than the sum of its parts. [Full review in Spanish]

For all those who are tiring of banal cash-grabbing vanity projects that only make noise at the ticket windows, this crime comedy comes as a breather despite some flaws in the story.

Watch it if you want a reminder of just how good Joseph Gordon-Levitt is or to see how far one can take a crazy idea and run with it.

I thought this dark and twisted movie was great. I took a risk on renting it on Amazon Prime and I’m so glad I did.

All plot and very little thematic substance makes a movie whacky. This overstuffed star filled cast brings some charm, but without further developing the characters, some decent acting washes out. Its cinematography and soundtrack aren’t good enough for this to be a movie to watch for the vibes. Its plot moves fast and effectively but so does attention in 2024. Bad strategy for entertainment value. B-

The plot went off too abruptly killing too many people which seems somewhat illogical.
