August 22, 2009This movie will only seem funny to a select few, as the humor is really random, weird and off-the-wall. But I'm one of those select few and I freaking loved this movie.
None of this movie is supposed to make too much sense, so don't expect that when you go to watch it. Just ...( read more) -
August 15, 2009Don Ready: I don't know how you got on this lot blind man, but your not leaving here until I've sold you a car.
Ok, this movie was way funnier than it should have been. With the combined talents of a very funny supporting cast, this film, headed by Jeremy Piven managed to be s...( read more) -

November 22, 2009A funny joke-a-minute kind of film, that while not amazing or revolutionary still fun, even though it loses steam in it's last third. Piven plays Piven but amped up, and some of the things are so absurd it's hard to enjoy it.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Something about The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard feels forgettable, even though, in the moment, it's often very funny. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
The movie gores many sacred cows, insulting families, capitalism, sexual responsibility, political correctness and smoking bans, with glee if not originality. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
The Goods is a cheerfully energetically and very vulgar comedy. If you're okay with that, you may be okay with this film, which contains a lot of laughs and has studied Political Correctness only enou... full review

August 13, 2009Is this supposed to be a remake of Used Cars? Because thats what it looks like. While Jeremy Piven is always funny, could they have come up with a more unoriginal plot?
