Review of A Fool and His Money

Sandra Bullock, bless her heart, is on screen for mere fleeting moments in this dunghill of bad writing, bad production values, bad concept, bad acting, this agglomeration of remorseless stupidity that should never have been made. Everything that Bullock has done from this movie forward is undoubtedly partly done to put this movie farther and farther behind her. In this film, a talentless loser is visited by God who tells him to start a corporation, but neglects to say what sort of company. Talentless loser decides that it would be a clever idea to start a new religion, with greed and self interest as the cornerstones. "The worst of capitalism and the best of Christianity" is the general idea. Wow! How imaginative! Big surprise, the idea works, the TL is raking in the dough, and then, surprise! he Sees The Light, declares himself and the religion a bad idea, a fraud, and gives it all up. In the end, for the final Huge Surprise, TL and Sandra Bullock are reunited on a tropical island paradise (well, we don't know that, we only see the inside of the plane terminal), he declares his love, she accepts him for some unfathomable reason, and they walk off down the hallway in blissful togetherness, probably grateful to have this wretched stinkball of a movie behind them. This film is actually worse than Governor Arnie's The Villain, which is really bad.
