Summary: Mo' Funny
Comment: This movie wont win any awards, get a fresh tomato on Rottentomatoes.com or be in the top 250 of IMDB(as if anybody cares what these stupid sheep think!) but it was still a funny movie and brought to you at a time when the Wayans Brothers were at the top of their game.
Story: Johnny Stewart(Damon Wayans) is a hustler that plans on going legit after meeting an attractive woman named Amber(Stacey Dash). So he gets a job as a mail room clerk and ends up stealing a credit card and goes on a shopping spree with his brother Seymour(Marlon Wayans). A roguish executive finds out and extorts Johnny to do his bidding.
The funniest scenes: every scene involving the beauty-challenged Charlotte is a riot. The scenes involving the lawyer that looks like a cross between Khujo Goodie of Goodie Mob and Rodney King is a hoot also.
Damon and Marlon work well together on screen and generate the most laughs. Stacey Dash is great also as Amber. If you like to see the Wayans Brothers before they started making rubbish like Little Man and Scary Movie 2 than this movie is for you. Also recommended is the soundtrack to this movie.

Comment: I saw this movie in the theaters when it first came out, this was a great comedy.

Summary: Until The End...
Comment: I thought this movie started out cool, bad script and all. The ending was not believable at all and was rushed. Wanna do a real comedy-action film, not so heavy on the comedy and let the action just happen. The people involved with this one had slight ideas where they wanted to go with it, but didn't know how to end it. So, instead of taking a little more time with it... need I say more? On top of everything, the release of the home and cable edition, there's extra edits not in the original film (BAD edits!) I guess somebody at the film company decided there's was too much cussing at the end (i.e. Damon standing in the middle of the street at the end of the chase sequence yelling, "DAMN!" - but in the theatrical release he says a different cussword) Don't believe me? When it comes to dirty words, I can read lips, especially after seeing this at the movies (and I was working at a theater when I saw this and it was free so I enjoyed it more...) There's the infamous sex scene blured out, but that wasn't different from the movie in theaters at all. Hold up, why did they blur out the sex scene? Mo' Money is R-Rated!! I wanna see Stacey Dash, but it wasn't about her. It was more less Damon making that decision. They made their point, I guess. Well, this could have been a way better comedy than an action flick. The comedy was Wayans flavor, but the action was cut and dry. This DVD won't do it justice because it didn't even do well at the movies. This is one of those movies you catch on regular TV when nothing else is on (which explains "Damn" substituting "S---") While editing for TV, this edit wound up making it to the "R-Rated" VHS and DVD. WOW, incompetence is great! Gone

Comment: A good watch i was entertain, and had a good laugh... can't really complain when it comes to the wayans brothers
Customer Rating:
Summary: More funny than one would expect.
Comment: It really wasn't so bad. As far as Wayans brothers come and go, Damon is one of the funniest. The film manages to blend convincing moments of tension and drama amidst occasional moments of hilarity. And believe it or not, there is actually a plot. It's one of the more genuinely amusing films to come out of the "new jack swing" era, and way funnier than anything in the Scary Movie franchise. That's fo sho.

Sort of comedy, sort of not, this film--cowritten, coproduced, and co-starring Damon Wayans--concerns a loser who takes an entry-level job at a credit company to impress a girl and soon gets caught up in fraud and blackmail. Marlon Wayans, Damon's brother, costars as a confederate in the chicanery. The film is meant to be both a jokefest and an edgy drama--the criminal activity is treated as a dark and serious matter--and the result is that Mo' Money succeeds on neither level. --Tom Keogh
