Film Frenzy

There’s a running gag in Money Talks that’s so perfectly set up and played, it’s a shame it couldn’t have been employed in a far better movie.

Rated: 2/4

Tucker's manic energy is the only thing keeping the audience from dozing off like the rest of the cast.

Filme legalzinho, o roteiro é bacana, o filme colocou charlie sheen e chris tucker como dupla, meio que deu certo, as cenas de ação foram boas e ajudaram o filme a ser bom, e o final com a explosão do helicóptero fez o filme terminar de um jeito excelente, com tudo isso, eu recomendo esse filme.

Other than Chris Tucker's manic act as a petty criminal on the run, this film stinks. Instead of dialing it back and letting Tucker work in and out jams using his mouth it relies on shootouts, car chases, and a lot of things blowing up. It's all very dumb.
