“You don't have to be crazy to blow 30 million dollars in 30 days. But it helps.”

Comedy

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!

VIBE

A wild, laugh-out-loud ride through an absurd premise. It's pure 80s excess, with a protagonist hilariously drowning in cash and chaos. Perfect for a feel-good escape when you need a good chuckle.
