Movie Review: Riches
Summary: 5 Stars

The Riches is portrays suspension of disbelief at its best! You have to see it to be"lie"ve it.

Movie Review: Good and bad, but a little silly
Summary: 4 Stars

After vacillating for two years I bought this series because of the reviews from other viewers. So many good reviews, I thought that I had to enjoy it. I was bored with the first three episodes and a bit insulted by the final two. The story has a big paradox, which was quite unnecessary because the writers have all the power. It struggles with defining right and wrong instead of following these people on an adventure, with all of their flaws (and without judging them for those flaws). People who spend their lives stealing, cover up an accidental death and commit fraud, yet try to prove that they're not as bad as the real-estate magnate? I think that the story would have lasted more than one and one-half of a season if the writers had stopped trying to make angels out of these career criminals. This problem is why the story points didn't add up: a thief and ex-convict takes exception to abusing drugs, but steals them and hides them away but doesn't take them? Why? Because taking drugs would make her a bad person. But, we say, she's a thief, ex-convict who's violating parole, has covered up the deaths of two people involved in a collision and is committing fraud. It's as if the writers are trying to tell us that stealing, committing fraud/lying, violating parole, disposing of bodies in a lake are okay and even funny, but taking drugs is not okay because people will have a low opinion of you. It's silly. Watch it, but the series takes about three or four episodes to get interesting, and then gets really stupid in the final two episodes. A waste of two very talented actors.

Movie Review: Good story, excellent actors
Summary: 4 Stars

Interesting story about white "Bohemians" trying to impersonate an upper class family... The challenge to make situations (the father has to become a lawyer...) believable is quite met by the writers. Very good acting, stunning Minnie Driver.

Movie Review: Life is river kid!
Summary: 4 Stars

After watching this series you may find yourself comically questioning the authenticity of the professionals in your life. Pop it in, put on the popcorn and enjoy.
