How to Make a Killing
Disowned at birth by his obscenely wealthy family, blue-collar Becket Redfellow will stop at nothing to reclaim his inheritance, no matter how many relatives stand in his way.
Critics Sentiment
Whitelaw gives Becket trench gun and demands murder
Julia takes fortune while Ruth abandons Becket
The film peaks with Ed Harris's memorable confrontation scene then crashes with a widely criticized ending that reviewers found lame and unsatisfying.
How to Make a Killing starts with mixed reception as reviewers question the need to remake a classic, builds moderate momentum through its killing spree sequences, and peaks with Ed Harris's standout performance. However, the film stumbles badly in its final act with a predictable and unsatisfying conclusion that left most critics disappointed.
