Where the Money Is Audience Reviews

Python Hyena Where the Money Is (2000): Dir: Marek Kanievska / Cast: Paul Newman, Linda Fiorentino, Dermot Mulroney, Susan Barnes, Anne Pitoniak: We don't really care where the money is but rather where the screenwriter was. Title possibly references Linda Fiorentino's view of Paul Newman in her quest to flee her lifestyle. He is a notorious bank robber transferred to a nursing home. She is a nurse who doesn't buy the act and attempts to expose him. Her marriage to Dermot Mulroney lost its passion in favour of merely functioning. Central plot regards robbing armoured trucks but this becomes repetitious with a shameless ending that not only applauds theft, but also allows the wrong participant to take the fall. Director Marek Kanievska does well with touches of humour but production seems flat. Newman is in top form as a patient whom is tested in very funny sequences with regards to his condition. He takes command but at the cost of someone else. Fiorentino as the nurse seeks excitement and adventure and does so at the careless cost of her marriage. Mulroney as her husband goes along with the scheme in hopes of reconnecting with his wife but ultimately must sacrifice himself for the wrong happiness. This is where the film hits a moral issue that some viewers will likely resent. We are ask to celebrate a conclusion that reeks. The film never arrives at any moral conclusion or purpose. Score: 4 ½ / 10
Lee Eisenberg Two days ago, one of the greatest actors of all time left this life. Paul Leonard Newman was best known for films like "Hud", "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" and "The Verdict". But he also starred in small, less noticed movies over the years. One example is "Where the Money Is". Newman plays an aged crook who moves into a nursing home where it becomes clear to the woman (Linda Fiorentino) running the place that he's not as disabled as he claims to be and might in fact be looking for help in pulling off another heist.OK, so an elderly criminal going in for one last scheme is sort of a hackneyed plot. But in this role, Newman doesn't even need to talk much; it seemed to me as if his eyes functioned as actors. Not to mention that there's some great chemistry between him and Fiorentino. This might not be the most noticeable movie, but it's worth seeing, if only once. There will never be another Paul Newman.Also starring Dermot Mulroney.
den_quixote this is a great film if you like caper flicks and/or paul newman. for those of you who have not yet seen this movie do not read further. but for those of you who have seen it but don't understand why carol was suspicious of henry consider the sex scene between her and her husband and how she placed henry's wheelchair so that he could not see what was occurring. after they finished and she returned to the bathroom area where henry was, she noticed that the bathroom mirror seemed to be in a different position, one which probably gave henry a clear view of the lovers. how could this have happened? next, when the old lady is choking on the nuts and there is no staff member around there is a sudden noise which brings everyone running. after the old lady is rescued carol notices that a lamp inexplicably had crashed which brought everyone running, and it had crashed right at henry's wheelchair. how could this have happened? but still, she is not certain that he is faking since she was readying herself to jump in the reservoir and rescue him when he climbed out of the water on his own.as to why two such upright citizens would suddenly become bank robbers, the opening scene of the movie shows carol's rebellious streak and wayne's willingness to go along with whatever she wants to do.by the way, carol is played by linda fiorentino, not florentino, and she starred in "the last seduction" not "the last deception" and it was great, if you haven't seen it.
jpaisan In playing a small town girl taken by the world wise con man, the chemistry between Fiorentino and Newman is perfect. Mulroney is basically Bud Bundy while Paul Newman is, well Paul Newman, and Fiorentino effortlessly falls for him, as does the audience.Well cast, well acted caper flick that runs on Newman's star quality.
