Critic Reviews

Variety Staff, Variety
Damon Wayans and his younger brother Marlon make a terrific comedy team in Mo' Money.
-
Derek Adams, Time Out
Damon and Marlon are at their best in the opening comic sequences, which allow their chemistry to operate, but their pacing is disrupted by the ensuing formulaic thrills.
-
Janet Maslin, New York Times
Some of the humor in Mo' Money has a mean-spirited edge. And only in isolated moments is it as funny as its own title.
-
Hal Hinson, Washington Post
The movie is described as an "action-comedy-romance," but it fails to work as any of the three.
-
Brian Orndorf, BrianOrndorf.com
It's a shame. A low down dirty shame. Or maybe I'm thinking of another Wayans family member.
