Un-Funny Money

...ba dum tisssss

That joke is funnier than anything in the movie. That's how bad it is.
How does this movie exist. Opens with a 1960s style animated credit scene, stars 80s star Chevy Chase and 90s star Penelope Ann Miller (love her), based on a play and was somehow made in 2006. I feel like this should have starred Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe in the 1960s.

Pretty good.

It's easy to blame Chevy Chase for this, but really, there are a lot of talented people here. How did nobody realize this was so unfunny?
Try as he might, Chevy Chase will never make a movie worse than Nothing But Trouble.
Goddamn, but this was a waste. It wants to be a '50s screwball comedy with Saul Bass intros but is an indie disappointment with no redeeming values and too many homophobic jokes and has-been actors grandstanding in awful roles.

Chevy Chase sure went way off the rails, didn't he? Community — a show that rightly made him a pariah — is the only thing to use him appropriately. This tries quite gamely to make a modern period comedy but fails on all fronts, feels cheap, and trots out Shooter McGavin and Armand Assante in thankless spots.

The only plus is seeing Penelope Ann Miller, who as always deserves better but is still a high point.
Chevy Chase was a favorite of mine growing up. I found this not funny comedy pretty hard to watch as I did not like seeing him fall so low. This one is just bad from the very beginning. There is a reason, that I, a Chase fan and a movie lover and never even heard of this one. Final thought: BAD!

Funny Money is that old school slapstick mess around you just don't get anymore. It really has an 80s vibe to it even though it was filmed in the 2000's. This movie is anxiety inducing with everything happening at the same time. It's basically the Three-Card Monte made into a movie. Just sit back relax and enjoy the antics.
When I chose this movie, I did so because I was looking for a flick to watch from 2006. (I'm following years now…the next one will be a flick from 2007, then 2008…etc).

A few minutes in and I thought, there is now way this can be from 2006. It felt like it was made in 83 or 84…

That said, all pop culture references (and there are plenty in this movie) proved that this was indeed a 2006'er.

I enjoyed this considering I'd never heard of it. It isn't the greatest Chevy Chase vehicle (you see what I did there?), but I did LOL a few times…

4.41 - 8.82🧳🧳🧳🧳
This is sorta similar to Dumb and dumber with the money in briefcase plot. It was funny at times but overall ok movie
THIS ONE IS ODD...A GIANT CAST,HEADED BY CHASE SCEME AND SQUIRM THEIR WAY THROUGH AN AFTERNOON AT CHASE'S HOUSE AS HE TRIES TO KEEP THE SUITCASE FULL OF MONEY HE STUMBLED INTO....IT WORKS QUITE WELL AT TIMES...AND FALLS APART COMPLETELY AT TIMES AS WELL...ODD...LIKE I SAID ...ITS ODD.
Sick day #2 "I'm in too much pain to sleep" movie. It's like what's up doc? But less good and less funny.
