That was an excellent one.

Good start, but then it gets ruined

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

A group of young boys befriend a prostitute named, V. Milk Money benefits from Melanie Griffith's and Ed Harris talent but also their great chemistry in general also the kid who plays Frank does a great job as well and i love the scene in the prom where he went 360 with that blonde girl. It's funny, dramatic and above all a great film for everyone and i definitely recommend it. (A+)

Frank's father Tom Wheeler (Ed Harris) doesn't like to talk about his dead mother. He is struggling to understand girls. With his two friends, they decide to go to the city and pay to see a naked woman. The boys get robbed in a parking lot only to be rescued by V (Melanie Griffith). She happens to be a hooker and she flashes them her boobs. Cash (Casey Siemaszko) is her pimp and Waltzer (Malcolm McDowell) is his boss. The boys get their bikes stolen and V drives them home. Her car breaks down and Frank tells his father that she's a math tutor. He's a school teacher trying to save a tiny neighborhood wetland. She ends up living in Frank's treehouse and Frank wants her to marry his father. Cash stole money from Waltzer and is killed but only after telling him that V has the money.It's a strange thing to make a comedy about young kids and a hooker. It's not a kids movie but it's way too light weight to be anything else. The kids seem way too young to be so deep into sex education. A hooker in the suburb is an odd proposition already but director Richard Benjamin keeps trying to make this into a family movie ... with a lot of talk about sex. At some point, one would expect Melanie Griffith to button up her blouse at least. The problem is all the sex material is connected directly with little kids and any laughs from that are awkward at best.

Just seen the movie on DVD and found it amusing. Not a masterpiece but a nice way to show your kids in the age of Frank ( main child actor in this Movie) what's the world is like out there, with prostitutes that can look like Grace Kelly or your dead mother. With a "lively" biology lesson and with dreams to get a mother, that wants to get out of dirty business, for your father that tries to save irreplaceble environment all come true. Ed Harris en Melanie Griffith did a good job and Melanie still look 20 years younger. She could start in the business tomorrow, although she will not need to. Lets not forget Michael Patrick Carter, which is certainly talented enough to continue his career

Whatever people say about this or any movie, you are your own best critic. This movie gets better with watching.When I first watched "Milk Money", I initailly squirmed when V and Tom were talking. V is talking about sex, and Tom is talking about math.Another point people might squirm is when a mother thinks Tom and V are brother and sister, and mentions to her children them as a good example. Then Tom kisses V in a way most people think brothers and sisters should not kiss. The kids are grossed.In other areas, it is a very good movie. In a gentle, and comic way, it deals with boys interest in sex and girls. It is done with the right balance. The boys all seem to be normal boys, in spite of the fact that no one has a "normal" family life. Who does.For instance, one of the boys is a neat freak because of his father, who unknown to him, has real issues. Later, he decides to stop washing. It's an overreaction, but there is truth when the father blames (wrongly) Tom for turning his son into a pig. Tom says at the boy is happy. He doesn't say it, but it is implied unlike before.
