"Finally Chevy Chase is up to his old self in Funny Money!! If you liked Caddy Shack or Christmas Vacation, I'm sure you will love this one. It is an absolute riot don't miss it! This movie has an excellent cast and a very funny plot so GO SEE IT!! I think that Armand Assante and Chris Mcdonald were very funny in this as well, they really make it fun and enjoyable. Also Robert Loggia played Chevys boss and he is just hilarious. It has been a long time since we have Chevy in the leading role and its good to see in back in front. He has always been a favorite of mine and he still is very very funny!I hope they put this movie in more theaters to make it easier for everyone to go see, I want to take my whole family to see it so hopefully it will open in more places soon."

Their only review posted...ever? And jesus, they didn't even try to fake it. They may as well have said "JUST BECAUSE THEY HIRED ME TO WRITE THIS REVIEW DOESN'T MEAN I DIDN'T REALLY LOVE THIS FILM ANYWAY!"

And I love how he says "I want to take my whole family to see it.." So he wants it to be released in more places so he can take his family...yet he's already seen it? Did he sneak away for the weekend just to go see Funny Money in one of it's "select theaters"? Good God.

Um... that review was given by a IMDB user. He doesn't get paid for the review... feel free to make a review yourself if you want. Simply click "comment on this film."

How is this any indication that he was paid to see it? Maybe he went with a few friends or coworkers? Ever think of that? Even if he did see it alone - so what? I guess that is evidence that he is paid for his review?

Studios have employees submit reviews to sites like this - which counts as 'getting paid for it.' The fact that the reviewer has never posted anything else makes it all the more likely.

Yeah, there is no *beep* way he seen this. If someone loved it that much, I doubt they have the ability to read and write. What a sad sack of *beep* movie.

I agree Armand Assante was hilarious as the corrupt cop, and Chris McDonald is always hilarious (something about his always comical facial expressions)Source:Movie reviews - Funny MOneyhttp://moviereviews.noskram.com/2009/12/movie-reviews-funny-money
