Movie synopsis

Uncle Joe McTeague (Kirk Douglas) is a cantankerous, contemptible old man but he's filthy rich. In fact, Joe's so wealthy that his nieces and nephews, the only kin he's got, have been indulging and obliging the miserable geezer for years in hopes of inheriting his money. When Joe finds a barely post-pubescent English tart (Olivia d'Abo) to cater to his every whim, the family goes bonkers, fearing they'll lose all the money to the young stranger. But they come together instead and formulate Plan B. This leads the family to bowling failure Daniel McTeague (Micheal J. Fox), a good-hearted, socially conscious relative even old uncle Joe won't refuse.

Movie trailer and editorial reviews

"...Refreshing misanthropy....[Fox] displays deft timing and all the sprightly energy his role demands..."
New York Times - Janet Maslin (03/04/1994)

"...[Hartman] steals each scene he's in and makes statements...zing like the poetry of Aristophanes..."
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (03/11/1994)

"...D'Abo invests her role with a refreshing wit, and Douglas' iron man has just enough humanity and canniness to keep the audience off-balance and alert..."
Variety - Leonard Klady (02/28/1994)

"...It is gratifying to see a great veteran star in a major role....[Douglas] brings a lifetime of experience in a portrayal rich in sly, deft nuances and details..."
Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (03/04/1994)

Greedy DVD

Created: 04/08/10
I like M.J Fox. and money. I like movies about money, and this one has a good story to it. People are greedy and this is how I would go about finding a successor for my money if i was rich.

Comedic Take on the reality of Family Greed

Created: 16/09/10
I think the movie is well done not an oscar masterpiece but the movie is pretty clear on its message of putting family first, then money and things. Nearly all the actors are well known and did great on their character portrayals. The dvd doesnt have alot of extras but at least its widescreen and looks good in an upconvert player. I recommend it!
