Brief synopsis of Money Talks

A story-hungry investigative reporter and a frenetic, garrulous small-time con trip down the well-worn path of comically mismatched, interracial buddies on the lam. Smelling a scoop, the reporter sets his pal up for a fall that lands him in jail--and downwind of a jailhouse plot to steal a stash of diamonds. Soon the innocent duo's on the run from the cops, the thieves, and Mobsters.

Rating of 2 stars out of 5 Radio Times

This mediocre action comedy sees complete opposites Chris Tucker and Charlie Sheen forced to rely on each other when the former, a small-time crook, crosses a gang of jewel thieves.

You get two of the best actors in the world and put them in two totally oposite rolls, Charlie Sheen as a news reporter living the high life, he is constantly showed up by comedy genious Chris Tucker who is a car wash attendant who deals stolen goods out the back.

This is one film not to miss

this is chris tucker doing what he does best, no nonesense comedy that at times brings tears to your eyes. this film is so raw but thats what makes it so good. actually been waiting to see this for quite some time and suffice to say i wasnt disappointed. thought charlie sheen was also excellent throughout. so dry as always but thats what makes his charactes so likeable. loved every minute of this, didnt take itself too seriously and thought that worked very well.
