Although the execution of this film is only so-so - it straddles the line between crime thriller and quirky comedy and is not quite successful in either genre - I'd recommend watching it for Sean Bean alone. For this is a film that Bean completely dominates, appearing in almost every scene, with tons of dialogue and acting opportunity, and acting everyone else off the screen in the process.It almost feels like the film has been written as a tribute to Bean and I'm not complaining. He's a hoot as a criminal dedicated to tracking down every cent of his stolen cash, bringing plenty of his trademark deadpan humour to the part. Bean exerts an air of authority, of quiet menace, like few other actors and his presence here is second to none. His character is a guy who rarely has to resort to violence, instead controlling people through his personality alone. He's fantastic, the best I've seen him in years.The rest of the film is okay, but the director can't hide the fact that most of the budget was spent on getting Bean and the rest of it feels rather cheap and lacklustre. It's amusing to see Chris Hemsworth, pre-THOR fame, appearing here and giving a rather weak performance in contrast to Bean. And the ending is one of the lamest cop-outs I've seen in a good while. Thank God Bean is here to distract us from these shortcomings.

Anybody that actually paid cash to see Ca$h probably was asking for a refund. This simplistic, well, I hesitate to call it a story, was one of the most moronic movies I ever wasted my time on. Fortunately I caught it on Epix and did not have to specifically pay for it. It was one of those movies that you start watching and think, wow, this is awful, I wonder if it can get any worse? And boy does it! It just digs about the deepest a hole a movie could dig for itself, and then it dies in it. So unrealistic and cheap looking. Save your money and time. The lead character is so overplayed, it is amusing. Moreover, he is probably the biggest wuss ever, which begs the question why the guy that plays Thor just doesn't clobber him already.

After Sam wakes up with a suitcase full of money thrown at his car, he keeps it, pays the rate at home and buys new furniture. Interestingly, his girlfriend after seeing the suitcase full of money, first she is happy and didn't ask Sam from where he have it. Only after she realizes that they might be in danger, but despite this agrees not to return the money and they keep it in order to make life more beautiful. Even more interesting is how the brother's owner of the money finds the two, with the help of the new car Sam bought and cost a lot. I wonder why Sam has not bought a cheaper car or in installments or even better if it took one second hand because an expensive one is easy to find. Once in her home Pyke calculates to find out how much they spend, then they go to get the rest and that remaining difference can not forgive and puts the two to appeal to some extreme measures to pay the debt. The film teaches powerful role they represent money in the world as well as two ordinary people can do things they did not ever imagine that they will do. But anyway better Sam donate money to poor people or throw them out the window as he did with the money stolen from the bank so we did not have to look at this film for almost two hours. Spend wisely.

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.
