Film Review (The Money Pit)

The Money Pit is a love comedy directed by Richard Benjamin in 1986. This movie was performed humorously by Tom Hanks who usually perform comedy. The movies he has performed before were The Man with One Red Shoe, Splash, Bachlor and etc.

Tom Hanks and Shelley Long play Anna and Walter, a young couple just married. They spend most of their time dealing with managing their new house. The performed the unstable love of the couple clearly.

Alexander Godunov plays Mac, the antagonist who interests in Anna and created conflict between the young couple by lying or saying that Anna slept with him when she was drunk.

The plot of the story is not very special, but the actors use funny expressions and skill to deal with the unstable house to make the movie more interesting. Sometimes Tom Hanks is over acting and they exaggerate to make the house look very unstable. For example, the house when the main character Walter runs through the stairs to the second floor, all of the stairs collapse. They also put special sounds to go with amusing performance to make the movie funnier.

The Money Pit is produced by a humorous technique, to show the love of a new couple. The conflict that created by Max was easily, and could really happen to young couples who have unstable love or have just entered a marriage. This movie is fit for young couples who in the summer age group. One special thing I like this movie is its music, it sound pretty active and full of liveliness, just like people during the summer age.
