“You don't have to be crazy to blow 30 million dollars in 30 days. But it helps.”
Monty Brewster, an aging minor-league baseball player, stands to inherit $300 million if he can successfully spend $30 million in 30 days without anything to show for it, and without telling anyone what he's up to... A task that's a lot harder than it sounds!

Incredibly fun, and funny, film from the great Richard Pryor who has never been better. Got a good laugh throughout the whole movie and even though the third act wasn't exactly a surprise, still found this to be a great vehicle for Pryor as well as for Walter Hill's direction. **4.25/5**
