Review of Money Plane

Money Plane (2020)
3/10
Predictably Bad
10 July 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Money Plane is a predictably bad movie about a crew of crooks who are forced to engage in one last job robbing the money plane for a crime boss. This plane is a flying casino on which top criminals bet on everything including Russian roulette, people killing eachother, how long someone will live against a deadly snake and so on, and as a result the plane apparently carries one billion dollars of cryptocurrency as well as cash.

This movie is ludicrous and makes very little sense in every way. The music is cheap and the story just plain bad. The runtime of 1 hour 22 minutes still had time for the main thief played by Adam Copeland to spend quality family time with the wife and kids and to have dream sequences as well in which he is dreaming about what his evil boss told him about not even 10 minutes earlier in the movie.

The fact that most of the team just managed to make their way on board of this almost mythical criminal plane is odd and you would think that they would have slightly better security. The sets are cheap and so was the idea of jumping out of the pasanger plane with parachutes when the heist is over. The plane also seems to have way too much space in the cargo hold. The supporting cast ranges from ok to bad and their dialogue is cringeworthy at times. The movie actually uses russian roulette for a comedy scene and it fails. There are a few amusing scenes such as an arms dealer and a human trafficker arguing about the morality of someone hitting on a stewardess but overall the viewer is left wondering why? Why would a bunch of the world's biggest crime figures get together on a flight. Why do we only see a few of these alleged top criminals? Why would whoever is in charge allow people they dont know onto the plane and why would anyone think this movie was a good idea in any way. A 2.5-3/10.
