Greedy

About This Movie

Greedy is a quirky little comedy that dives into the madness of money and family greed. Jonathan Lynn directs with a playful touch, and the ensemble cast led by Michael J. Fox and Kirk Douglas brings a fun energy. The pacing’s a bit uneven, but it adds to the chaotic vibe as the McTeagues scramble for an inheritance from their still-alive uncle. It’s filled with one-liners and some sharp satire about the lengths people go to for wealth. Plus, the practical effects in some of the slapstick moments are pretty charming. Not exactly a classic, but there's something about its offbeat humor that sticks with you. Definitely a film that revels in its own absurdity.
