Mad Money (2008)

When her husband (Ted Danson) loses his job and sinks into debt,  an upper middle class suburban housewife (Diane Keaton) is forced to go to work. Having no job experience, she is forced to work as a janitor at the Federal Reserve Bank. She soon concocts a scheme to steal some money from the FRB but she can't do it alone. To this end, she lures two other employees into her plot: a single mother (Queen Latifah) who works in the shredding room and a ditzy dame (Katie Holmes) who transports money from floor to floor. Loosely based on the British film HOT MONEY and directed by Callie Khouri (the Oscar winning writer of THELMA AND LOUISE). The film begins promisingly as a smart heist caper but it isn't long before it descends into far fetched silliness that abuses your intelligence. If you can put up with that, the film is still enjoyable because of its three leading ladies who give the movie better than it deserves. There's so much that is wrong with the film but the cast isn't one of them. With Roger Cross, Adam Rothenberg and Christopher McDonald.
