This formulaic 1997 comedy becomes needlessly complicated at points but feeds off the high energy of Chris Tucker (The Fifth Element, Rush Hour). Tucker plays a two-bit con man, Franklin Hatchett, framed for the prison breakout of a ruthless criminal. Hunted by both the police and the bad guys, Hatchett finds his only hope in a smarmy, self-serving television reporter played by the perfectly cast Charlie Sheen (Platoon), who agrees to protect the nervous, hapless patsy only to further his own career. The plot is at times just plain dumb, and the requisite car chases and explosions happen a bit too frequently. But Tucker's manic energy and off-the-wall humor, as he is thrown into situations of mistaken identity and mortal danger, make the movie a frenetic and entertaining romp. --Robert Lane

Rating:  - Chris Tucker at his best!
I've seen a lot of movies, but not one as hilarious as money talks. It's seriously unbelievable how funny chris tucker is. Franklin Hatchett is the perfect role for him. I could go on and on! I'm gonna go watch it right now actually. BEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME! If you've never seen it, I feel bad for you because you're missing out on an unbelievable experience.
Rating: - Great DVD
Received the Money Talks DVD in new condition still in the shrink wrap. It is hilarious and we have watched it many times. Great seller and would do business with them again.
Rating:  - [3.5]--"You're phat. P-H-A-T. Pretty Hot And Tempting."
Enjoyment of "Money Talks'' depends mainly on how funny one finds Chris Tucker. All the other elements -- story, production values, and performances -- are secondary. "Money Talks'' is what they used to call a star vehicle. It's a showcase to introduce an alleged comic talent and see if the public goes for him. I wouldn't quit laughing at Tucker's jokes and comedic overtones, and after viewing the film, Money Talks is more of a modernization of "48 Hrs."

Rating: - Good, at least when it's not being racist
The action story in this picture works, mainly because of the two talented leading performers. And the movie as a whole is kind of good, but not something I could subject to multiple viewings by any means. It kind of reminds me of 1983's "Trading Places" in that they have the following in common: the African American lead is depicted as a hustler while the Caucasian lead is depicted as a rich male, or soon-to-be-rich male in this case; the African American lead is getting arrested and incarcerated ...
