I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

this movie is still classic for a reason... Chris tucker dialogues are still catchy and I'm still admiring his scar-faces ... he is the one who takes up the full movie with such a great sense of humor and non stop speaking by him makes even great. just go with it if u need some stress buster right now.. i really enjoyed every bit of the movie.. please don't be concerned about the 100% plot here. it might be commercial at the end but you will love it after watching..you might watch all the comic scenes again n again after watching full movie.. you can even admire minute reactions from tucker :D laughter riot movie for sure ..

Money Talks was a worthwhile action/comedy that was enjoyable. Charlie Sheen and Chris Tucker made a great duo. Money Talks was also notable for being Brett Ratner's directorial debut, who would also go on to direct the Rush Hour trilogy, The Family Man, and Red Dragon.Franklin Hatchett (Chris Tucker) is a small time hustler who is exposed by reporter James Russell (Charlie Sheen) on camera and arrested by police. While Franklin is transported to jail on a prison bus, the bus is intercepted by mercenaries and Franklin is dragged onto a helicopter while handcuffed to another prisoner. When Franklin hears a plot to locate a cache of stolen diamonds, he manages to jump out of the helicopter when the mercenaries also plan to murder him. Franklin must also evade the police following his escape from custody as well as being framed for the murder of several police officers. Franklin enlists the help of James Russell, the reporter who initially put him in prison, for protection and to clear his name.Chris Tucker was a standout for this comedy. He was hilarious! Chris Tucker would also reunite with Brett Ratner for the Rush Hour trilogy. Charlie Sheen was also good to see as reporter James Russell.Also starring Heather Locklear, Paul Sorvino, David Warner, and Paul Gleason, Money Talks was an enjoyable comedy from start to finish. It was good to see Brett Ratner go on to build a career as a popular director.7/10.

Twenty five million dollars was spent on this movie, those are earth dollars mind you not lunar cash or martian money, a fortune amassed to make an action-comedy. A dull humorless wretched affair entirely populated by unlikable fake characters. Do you know how much money twenty five million dollars is? Imagine it as yours for a moment, you have twenty five million dollars, think of all you can do with that much filthy loot, now do you want to invest all of that money in a Charlie Sheen/ Chris Tucker movie? Have you seen Money Talks? Well that's the script, would that script read to you like a twenty five million dollar idea? Oh my God! What I would do with twenty five million dollars if I was going to make a movie! No matter how insane or ridiculous the movie more than likely would be Lord Lord it would be better than Money Talks. Money Talks is the bottom of the barrel folks, if you cant do better than this movie you need to get out of the movie biz.

I have never seen a black/white buddy-movie that was so funny! One of my favourite actors after seeing this movie, Chris Tucker, would set his name on the record after both Rush-hour movies. He was given this opportunity to play Detective Carter after a super laughing performance in this movie. There is a lot of chemistry going on between Sheen and Tucker and I also loved Paul Sorvino as Sheen's rich father in law... Maybe the script is not as thick as it could be, for me it was not important at the time. I wanted a good laugh and that is the least I got! Tucker is hilarious!! The best comedy from Rattner until now! But why couldn't he keep Tucker at the set while filming Rush-hour 3??? What is that all about, Brett? Is this movie even coming out???
