Money relegates its most interesting ideas and characters to the periphery and dives wholeheartedly into financial thriller territory that's only moderately gripping.

Money successfully depicts the drug-like high of chasing fool's gold and has the ability to lure the audience into its narcotic haze.

Although there are a couple of places in which it shoehorns the plot, this is for the most part a tightly written, fast-paced thriller with real bite.

"Money" suffers from being poorly edited and at two hours far too long.
