Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times 01/01/2000
3/4
There's no deep point to be made; the device is simply an excuse to tell half a dozen short stories. But the very lightness of the premise gives the film a kind of freedom. Go to Full Review

Louise C 12/29/2023 Now an old movie, but if you have a chance to watch it, do! 'Twenty Bucks' is funny, light-hearted and memorable too. See more 10/23/2023 Just fair. A big cast of likable actors. This twenty dollar bill goes to almost every one of them. I have seen better side stories though of everyone coming together. See more steve d 01/06/2023 It all goes nowhere. See more 08/23/2022 Easy to follow unique concept that doesn't take a great deal of focus and requires little intelligence to be mildly amused with. A little too much coincidence and convenience for the concept to fully spread its wings, you can find a better use of the concept. See more Frances H 08/25/2015 Great interweaving of multiple character stories around the passing of a twenty dollar bill from hand to hand. Linda Hunt and an all-star cast make this film a delight. The song at the end says it all. See more 11/01/2014 As a twenty-dollar bill circulates, various classes of people assign it differing values. American class differences reveal themselves in this fine but didactic film. The conceit is interesting enough, and the stories and characters are all engaging, from the thieves to the engaged couple, but when it all comes together, in a haphazard Altman imitation, it's hard to discern that we've seen anything new or remarkable. Overall, this is a good concept, well-executed, but not as "important" as it might think. See more Read all reviews
