Brewster's Millions
1985
*½
Director: Walter Hill
Cast: Richard Pryor, John Candy, Lonette McKee, Stephen Collins
A baseball player is challenged to spend \$30M in one month in order to win ten times that sum. This promising premise is turned into a stupid and tiresome comedy, and the fault lies mainly with Richard Pryor's exhausting performance. Based on George Barr McCutcheon's novel.
