    This is a lovely chick flick for a rainy day. It's funny, uplifting and the guy who all gay men and everyone else think is gay but who isn't is really sweet. Jennifer Aniston plays a good role but I feel she plays it a bit one dimensional - there's no depth to it. Overall thou...( read more)gh a good movie that I'd watch more than once.

    I quite liked this movie, is was an interesting indie sort of chick flick! This movie is also funny and has exceptional performances from everyone in this movie, i love jennifer Aniston but i dont think she really ranges herself like with picture perfect she plays a female who is...( read more) single and then gets won over or something and finds a better meaning to life, but this movie is good, funny intriguing and does prove money doesnt always buy happiness!

    Another movie which is too boring to watch.. After watching it for 10 minutes I turned it off. Too bad, because the cast is very good.

    Very interesting; simple yet satisfying character study. The film's biggest achievement is the fact that it's very well grounded in reality. Everything feels so genuine.

    Competent writing/directing by Nicole Holofcener, but this little indie gem is all about its strong female...( read more) cast, led by a wonderful Frances McDormand. Jason Isaacs stands out amongst the men.

    Good movie... but Aniston seemed a bit out of place in this movie... her in that role, not that believable.

    Dumb movie. It was a complete mess. I know a lot of women loved this movie, but I hated it.

    Okay, maybe this movie didn't really deliver anything more than we saw in the trailer but I was very entertained.

    I watched this again on dvd and realized how much I truly enjoy this film. With an amazingly insightful screenplay from writer/director Nicole Holofcener, this is one good dramedy that has been unfortunately overlooked.

    Here are four lifelong friends who are at different stage...( read more)s in their lives. A soccer mom who apparently "has it all"- money and a good working marriage; a writer who constantly bickers with her husband who is her writing partner; a designer who is going through menopause and doesn't know it; and an unemployed and the only single friend who is still searching for what she truly wants at 40.

    They may not have been friends at all had they met at present, as Joan's soccer mom character opines, considering the disparities between their lives and financial standing. But they have become each others' confidante that there is no more questioning loyalties here.

    Money is talked about unabashedly. The interesting bit is how one friend has obscene amounts of it she can donate millions to her son's school, and how Olivia the unemployed friend is cleaning houses because she has none of it. Yet we see Olivia doesn't feel inferior towards her rich friends. We later see she is hungry for something more than just money.

    Having a woman writer pen stories about womens' complex lives make quite an impact. The seemingly trite situations become pregnant with so many messages. When the bare truth is said, it's funny and poignantly sad altogether. And we laugh knowing full well there are painful truths about women only another woman can truly fathom.

    Dreadfully boring. That pretty sums it up. A few funny lines but overall not that great. Catherine Keener is probably the best out of it. Don't waste your time on this.

    Film mi nije nista posebno, slatka mi je samo uloga od J. Aniston

    This premise and cast should have produced a much, much better movie than this. No chemistry, implausible situations, and stilted dialogue.

    An interesting film. I liked the differing relationships between the couples, great performances and jennifer aniston was wonderful. A nice film but I was disappointed with the very end.

    A QUIRKILY TERRIFIC MOVIE


    "Friends With Money" is revolved arou
    ...( read more)nd the life of four mid-age women whose friendships is increasingly challange by their degree of financial comfort.Friends With Money is straight portrayal on how's money effects our life and created a bonds between peoples.

    This ironic piece of stories,cut between 4 intersections which done so contradically terrific,one's rich,the other one is poor,and so on.

    Each character was so grown into the actresses,Jennifer Aniston,the queen of desperation,once again,plead her poor and miserable character into life.Frances McDormand is flawless,while Joan Cusack and Catherine Keener,both played their characters with grace and charm.

    For a typical Art House mini-budget,Friends With Money is quirkily sharp,dramatically outstanding,never lose of a tight-air,and has no superficiality.Well-written and breaks barrier,also Jennifer Aniston's best.



    Why Watch It


    In this earth,we dealed with money,we dealed with peoples,and how they reacted to each other.Friends With Money is a bittersweet satire of a social caste system,in the most complicated yet not so much dramatically driven stories.


    The 360-Spin

    Jen Aniston in her best acting,and in her best entourage so far ( yes,better than her Friends' cast ).

    There is a simple way to describe Friends with Money, think about Sex and The City minus the shallow characters, shallow dialogue and shameless advertising and you have to very touching and insightful Friends With Money.
    This is one of the movies that guys should watch just to u...( read more)nderstand female relationships. Thanks to the wonderful lead actresses in particular Frances McDormand and Jennifer Aniston (Prove after The Good Girl that she can still act). It's not perfect, the male cast really has nothing to do here (Then again they don't have to), it is slow at time and the ending doesn't really fit into the film. However just for director/writer Nicole Holofcener way with talented actresses Friends With Money is worth saying.

    I love this movie because how all the characters are blunt in their dialoge. Jenn Anisten plays a character you thought she'd never do.
