Simply Rent
By MC (23 reviews) from Luton , 29 Mar 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
I've never understood how this Sam Raimi film has been overlooked. It's one of his most subtle, yet effective works to date. The story revolves simply around 3 characters who's lives are changed when they find 4 million dollars in a crashed plane. Although there is no trademark Raimi camera wizardy, the acting, pace and tension created means there is never a dull moment from start to finish.
Definitely worth a rent, if not a buy!- Was this review helpful to you?

(27)TV Film
By buffyrules (335 reviews) from southend on sea , 22 Jun 2012Despite an amazing performance from Billy Bob Thornton this film struggles to not feel like a TV film. The other characters are poorly acted and badly scripted. So apart from one stand out performance not much here to get excited about.- Was this review helpful to you?

Never trust anyone!
By a customer , 22 Nov 2011What started out as a simple plan just became quite insane and complicated in the end. That's because human nature got in the way!
I liked the relationship between the brothers and all the problems that unfolded as the movie progressed.
The characters just got into more and more trouble and into a deeper pit. The problem was every time they did something they then had to cover it up with something else.
The moral of this tale - if you find a pile of money just walk away!!- Was this review helpful to you?

This is a good night-in movie with anyone.
By Casablancan (8 reviews) from Bournemouth , 08 Nov 2011A Simple Plan has a simple plan and that is to entertain you from the beginning to the end. You are best of watching this movie without knowing the story but the acting is good enough, especially Bill Paxton, to keep you guessing as to how its all going to work out.
Not to sure what Bridgit Fonda is doing in this movie.
This is a good night-in movie with anyone. I recommend it.- Was this review helpful to you?

echoes of the Coens, but not quite
By chazeroo (55 reviews) from HIGHCLERE , 23 Mar 2010You'll be thinking this feels a little bit like Fargo. It lacks the polish, but it remains an engaging thriller. It tackles the themes of morality and crime doesn't pay. It asks the question how much money will it take for a good man to fall from grace. Certainly tense; certainly satisfying. Billy Bob Thornton and Bill Pullman not at their very best.- Was this review helpful to you?
