One of my all time favorites.

Good movie but grossly overrated

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

I enjoyed this film about a bounty hunter (Ice T) who chases a con man who keeps eluding him. When the con man wins the mega lottery and then loses his ticket (in the boat of a nasty villain) he tries to enlist the aid of Ice T to get it back. Unfortunately for him, Ice T does not believe him about the ticket and is not only interested in collecting the bounty for the con man and also recovering several million in diamonds that a bad guy has.Eventually, Ice T starts to believe the con man and they somewhat work together but Ice T maintains a short leash on him until he can beat the villain and get the diamonds.There are some really hilarious scenes and both Ice T and the con man put in excellent performances.An overlooked gem that is as good as any of the Lethal Weapon films!

This movie is totally the worse i've ever seen! Ice cube is a VERY bad actor, well all of the actors of this movie are bad. The story is stupid, the end is stupid... It's really rare that I hate a movie that much! IT SUCKS

Co-written, co-produced and starring Ice Cube. You know, I never considered it, but he's one hell of an actor. Ice Cube is the best thing about Ghosts of Mars and he owns Friday and Next Friday. Here, he's a bounty hunter in Miami whose prey loses a winning lottery ticket in the middle of a diamond theft by an evil criminal mastermind.Michael Epps (Omar's brother maybe?) is quite good. The chase for the diamonds and the lottery ticket is reminiscent of some of those old Bill Cosby/Sidney Poitier flicks from the 1970s and yet it never really tips into the comedy realm but never loses that urban thriller edge either. The ending however was a little too The Whole Nine Yards for me.Great action sequences, nasty villains and good guys to root for. Look for Anthony Michael Hall as a white trash trailer park deadbeat. Not a bad rental.

Ice Cube has definitely flipped the script. He's done it all from acting, writing, producing and directing. "All About The Benjamins" isn't a great movie by any means, but it validates tomorrow's newest duo - Cube and Epps. When Mike Epps teamed with the Cube on "Next Friday", I thought it was gimmicky. "All About The Benjamins" cements it. They truly are a throw back to the great comedic duos from Laurel and Hardy to Gibson and Glover. There's alot of plot holes, implausible action scenes, but the chemistry between the two stars is undeniable. If I have to critique one thing, Cube needs to refine his screenwriting skills a tad. He knows how to tell a good story, but doesn't know how to write one. With Cube, the only way he can go is up.
