Armand and nothing more. at first sigh. because the script is not an inspired one and the idea too seductive for explore in the best manner. the acting is far to be bad but not more than decent. a film about a suitcase with money and large references to The Box. but, unfortunately, it is not enough. so, the decent job of Sean Bean who looks to create a mix of humor and thriller who is only in few scenes reasonable. a film of a great idea. not bad, not good, only an exercise to use different ingredients, few actors and crumbs of action movies for a story who could be interesting but remains only chain of conventional solutions.
Tss5078 Some of the blandest of stories can be made into gems by the performance of one man. The story in Ca$h is by no means original, but the addition of an outstanding bad guy, with his own original way of doing things, makes the film worth seeing. Sean Phelan (Chris "Thor" Hemsworth) is down on his luck and about to have his house taken by the bank, when an amazing thing happens. While driving on the highway, he sees a high speed chase in progress. The robbers, not wanting to be caught with the evidence, throw their loot off the overpass and right onto Phelan's car. The Phelan's think that God has smiled on them and they start making plans for life in the fast lane, when their luck turns again. Thanks to their greed, the robber (Sean Bean) is able to track them down and shows up at the Phelan's door, demanding his money back. LOTR's Sean Bean stars as the bad guy and he really has turned into one of the best criminal actors you could get. He's this big scary guy, with such a calm demeanor, willing to tell you everything that's on his mind. Bean takes the Phelan's through a wild week, trying to get back his money in a variety of ways, that I think will really surprise you. One of Bean's strength as an actor turns out to be a weakness to his character in this film. As I said, he has a way of always telling you what's on his mind, and in this film it's all about the cash. That being said, Bean keeps trying to figure out the amount of money left to be repaid and it gets pretty annoying. Also of note, while this was a pretty entertaining film, it is also about 40 minutes too long. Admittedly, the story is a bit thin, so the writers try to expand the story as much as they can. While it's terrific at first, by the end, the film is seriously lagging, and it takes a lot away from an otherwise terrific film. Ca$h doesn't offer many surprises, but the cast is terrific and it most defiantly has it's moments. It's the perfect film to use if you're looking to kill some time without having to think too much about it.
dragokin This is a movie that you watch, get some fun out of it and forget when it's over. And this is meant as a compliment.We might argue what the purpose of cinema is, but Ca$h has an entertaining story with premises that are mostly believable. The cast delivers an overall decent performance. However, with less known actors it would have been just one of many B-movies.Sean Bean is excellent and there is no need to elaborate on that. Chris Hemsworth reveals his limitations as an actor. When you see him in Ca$h you understand he's been a logical choice for the role of Thor which came out roughly a year later. Victoria Profeta was my treat in the movie. With her looks and skills i wonder where she'd been before and makes me ponder what it takes to make it in Hollywood.
Bene Cumb Cash is not a bad movie itself, but the plot seems somewhat factitious - as the activities take place in the present U.S. where you can hardly find shops without security cameras, or easy opportunities to drive around without number plates... And the choices made by the couple seem odd as they did not obtain the money through crime or gambling. Constant calculations and amounts become soon a pain in the neck :) Sean Bean is great as always, the other actors are nothing special... The movie is a good and adequately lengthy entertainment when there is nothing to do or the weather allows no outdoor activities. But it is definitely neither Michael Mann nor Guy Ritchie.
