Richie Rich (Macaulay Culkin) has every toy any little boy could ever want, in addition to an adoring mother (Christine Ebersole) and father (Edward Herrmann). The one thing Richie doesn't have is friends. When his parents suddenly go missing, Richie suspects an executive (John Larroquette) in the family company is to blame. Setting out to solve the mystery, Richie hooks up with a group of kids who prove they just might fill the void in his life, while helping him save his folks.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

With Macaulay Culkin barely registering any emotion, Richie Rich feels disjointed and free of a sense of fun and wonderment.

Anderson O The Live adaption of Richie Rich was possible ahead of the Time. Better than expected when revisiting it 30 years later. Maybe society at that time and now wasn’t ready for the message that Rich is in development of your network of friends and peers. Your network truly is your networth. As Richie is the Richest kid with a lot of preconceived notions of how we think the rich treat others in society and what we think of rich kids that may not be true. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/07/24 Full Review juan daniel p film familiar con una trama muy simple niño rico que quiere sentirse como un niño normal, los personajes soy todos caricaturescos los buenos son buenos y los malos son malos de las actuaciones destaco a Macaulay Culkin quien con 14 años lleva muy bien la película, dirigida por Donald Petrie que la verdad no conozco más películas del el, pero hay una escena de Ricky (Macaulay) y sus padres tienen la misma experiencia pero en diferente circunstancia y pequeñas coas hace que Ricky ricon se entretenida y no aburrirnos ya que es corta la película y pues deja un mensaje que nos dice la felicidad no está en el dinero sino en las personas que nos rodean. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/25/24 Full Review Mellissa R Marcou minha infância, não tem como dar nota baixa, esse filme me traz muita nostalgia Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/24 Full Review Steven D Really love this movie. Full of fun times and cool cameo's from celebs in the 90's. Don't understand the 26% Rotten Tomatoes score, it was much better than that. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review Black B El sueño de cualquier niño hecho película es la manera perfecta de resumir está película, si hubiera tenido unos 7 o 9 años me hubiera encantado está película pero ya soy mas mayor y ese no fue el caso. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/13/23 Full Review Jeremiah N Macaulay Culkin makes a great Ritchie Rich! I really loved his performance in this movie!
