“I was looking for a good comedy to watch and my mom recommended Easy Money which she had on VHS. I wasnu0026#39;t sure since Iu0026#39;m not a big fan of Rodney Dangerfield, but she mentioned that Joe Pesci and Jeffrey Jones, so I figured I would give it a shot. Now even though Iu0026#39;m not a fan of Rodney Dangerfield, I have to admit that he and the rest of the cast made this film extremely enjoyable. I really miss comedies like this, where the comedy was just so simple and had jokes that were a sure hit with most. Despite it being predictable and like a sit com, this was a great comedy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMonty is a rude, over weight alcoholic with a gambling problem, he has friends who have the same problem, but a family that still loves him. His daughter is about to get married to a gang member that he doesnu0026#39;t approve of. But when his mother in law dies, they inherit 10 million dollars, but there is an exception to when he gets the money, for a whole year, Monty has to behave and get clean and sober. With encouragement from his family and friends, Monty does the best he can to get that money.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI just loved Joe Pesci, heu0026#39;s like that little kid who took on the big bullyu0026#39;s and actually won the fight, heu0026#39;s just such a funny character, I love Joe! We also have the u0026quot;unknownu0026quot; actors of the time, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Jeffrey Jones, among others. I loved the ending, itu0026#39;s definitely a classic and so funny. I would recommend this movie to anyone, itu0026#39;s all in good fun and a great comedy, we need more films like this today.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e8/10”
