Great cast, great concept
I have always thought that any movie with William H. Macy must be a great film (it's a benchmark that has rarely caused me dismay); once again William proves me right. Although Brendan Frasier has a prominent role, this film is creative, interesting and has some genius plot turns. This was on the "Bravo" channel a few weeks ago and I sure wish I taped it...too bad independant films go out of stock so quickly. If you can rent it -- do!

Watch this movie!
Amazing things about this movie: 1. everybody's in it but nobody's heard of it; 2. anyone will like it, including Great Aunt Matilda; 3. high watchabiltiy, that is, you can stand to watch it more than once in your life; 4. it's really, really good.

Purportless
"Twenty Bucks" chronicles the journey of a twenty dollar bill, traveling from person to person until it finally reaches its original owner.
After reading about the movie's plot, I expected it to be at least somewhat exhilarating. Sadly, its most exciting part is when a man, in the process of standing up, inadvertently whacks a woman with his luggage.
I don't know if I have ever seen a more pointless film. I've searched for some kind of meaning or lesson that it could have, and I cannot find one. This film failed to impress me.

Hidden Treasure
Coincidentally or not, it seems that I have been watching a lot of films lately that center around the main theme present in "Twenty Bucks". We are presented with a varied cast of characters and given insight into each of their very different lives, all the while being shown how they, and we for that matter, are all connected.
What seperates "Twenty Bucks" from other films with the same theme and makes it so good is its ability to vary moods quickly and seamlessly. The film does an excellent job of mirroring life by presenting such a wide spectrum of differing events and emotions. Like life, the film is whimsical and light hearted one moment, and tragic and melancholy the next, but never do these transitions seem forced.
Our actions carry repurcussions that affect other lives in ways we can never realize, even if that action is something as seemingly insignificant as a twenty dollar bill moving from one hand to the next. The deep question being asked of us of course is, "Is it all random or is there some underlying destiny that moves us along towards our fates?" Thankfully, "Twenty Bucks" does not attempt to answer that question. Instead, it merely presents us with life and all its triumphs and failures, sadness and joy, and disillusionment and enlightenment, and lets us decide the answer based on our own point of view...do you see these things as random events or is fate involved?

Running Cool shows what most people dont know!
This movies shows what most people dont know. The bond between biker brother & sisters. The bikers standing up for what is 'right'. Most people think that all bikers are OUTLAWS. Well, after seeing this movie, you will see bikers in a whole new light. Good acting, good story-line and Great looking 'scoots'. A definate for your "BIKER" collection.

if you want a sexy leading man...
This is an amazing action movie about bikers. Andrew Divoff is so incredibly sexy! Watch the movie just for him! It's got a romantic story, action, cool bikes, and a great storyline overall. Definitely a great watch! Again, Andrew Divoff is amazing. Not too many guys look so amazing in a pair of tight jeans. His buddy, Bubba, while having an expansive waistline, and lots of tattoos, has a very big heart. Buy this movie!

Bikers Get A Break
I thought Running Cool was a great movie. Bikers are always being displayed as outlaws. This movie comes together to show how bikers stick together as a family. The language is a little foul, but if you can look past that you will find that not all bikers are bad. They are everyday people just like you and me. You also have an added humor along with a romantic love story in here as well. It goes back to the old saying "You can't judge a book by it's cover".

The greatest American biker story ever told!
This movie is truly the heart and soul of what freedom and brotherhood should be. The greatest biker movie ever made.

A good flick
What a fun film. I love that it was directed by real bikers. I also recommend seeing the making of this film. Yes some of the acting leaves a little to be desired but DeeDee Phifer (Michelle's little sister) does a great job. All bikers should check it out. ... Read more

The first of the softcore Skinemax movies!
Great scenes with David Naughton and former playmate India Allen (when she was a little chubbier) in this movie. Other than that, the plot and acting is thin. It possibly could be worth your money though, especially for the syrup scene. ... Read more
