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.

2/5

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.

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.

7.5/10

The film manages to be memorable, funny, thought-provoking, and leaves us with a common, but important lesson. The power of greed is nearly infinite, unless we have a higher code and do not simply accept that the world is evil and waiting to pounce.

3/5

With the majority of its main characters unlikeable, there's nobody to root for - which undoes much of the tension.

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

I cried at Bailey getting hurt and had to stop watching I hope the makers of the film are proud of themselves 😭

Too dark, horrible and sad ending, could have been much better.

Dark humor with a few unexpected twists. The ending feels justified after watching!

Not bad but had the potential to have been a lot better. And pray what's Gordon-Levitt doing acting in this indie flick? And that too in a not-so-memorable part.. fallen on hard times, eh..
