Brewster's Millions
Monty Brewster, an aging minor-league baseball player, stands to inherit $300 million if he can successfully spend $30 million in 30 days without anything to show for it, and without telling anyone what he's up to... A task that's a lot harder than it sounds!
Critics Sentiment
Brewster runs for mayor with None of the Above campaign
Spike and Angela leave as Brewster becomes fed up with money
The film peaks during the mayoral campaign sequences then drops significantly when friends abandon Brewster in the emotional third act
Brewster's Millions starts solidly with its clever premise and builds to comedic highs during the political campaign sequences that reviewers consistently praised. The film struggles in its final act with pacing issues and an abrupt ending, though Pryor's sympathetic performance keeps it entertaining throughout.
