Mad Money (2008) 7/10

Starring : Diane Keaton, Queen Latifah, Katie Holmes
Director : Callie Khouri
Running Time : 104 mins

A trio of women that work as cleaners at the Federal Reserve Bank soon come across a money making scam that could make them rich. All they have to do is steal all the old money that's being thrown away and replaced with clean bills without getting caught by their bosses, but things aren't as easy as they first thought they would be.

This was better than I expected and there were some solid performances from the main cast. The premise is a good one, but one that feels like it's been played out in many movies before. Thankfully Keaton and Latifah, and to a lesser extent Holmes, do a reasonable job of making this movie as unique as it can be.
