Fun with Dick and Jane (2005)

When an affluent couple lose all their money following a series of blunders, they turn to a life of crime to make ends meet. (IMDb)

The story is quite unrealistic, but considering its themes (the suburban and corporate aspects of the American Dream), its extreme highs and lows make it feel more like an appreciably goofy satire than a desperate low-grade comedy. With a good amount of rambunctious plot-based humour (see Dick’s illegal immigration and lawn stealing) and a fun go-for-broke premise, this is a decent film, even though it lacks any real character development or narrative depth.

6.5/10 (Alright)
