In the golden eighties a lot of these 'what if you where stinking rich?' movies were made coz that's what everybody wanted to be then I guess. Greed was good! Brewsters Millions is of of these flicks, and I remember having seen the cover of it in the VHS rental store many times but I think I hadn't gotten around to seeing it yet then so I gave it a go. Brewster (Pryor) has to spend 30 million $ in 30 days and end up with no possessions but the shirt on his back as a condition to inherit 300m$ from his uncle. The films is not as excessive as they would have made it these days but it's plain fun though nothing exceptional. I probably would have liked it more when I'd seen it in the 80s. So not an 80's classic but you could do a lot worse when it comes to comedies.
