Greedy People (2024) S: Gordon-Levitt, James, Patel



In this darkly comedic crime thriller, rookie cop Will (Himesh Patel) and his rogue partner Terry (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) upend their small island town when they accidentally discover one million dollars at a crime scene (of their own making). After the duo unwisely decides to steal the money, the community’s quirky residents are lured into the mad dash for cash — ranging from an expectant mom (Lily James) to a masseur (Simon Rex) to a shrimp company owner (Tim Blake Nelson) — and everyone learns just how far they are willing to go for the almighty dollar.

I was just about to make a thread for this.

Worth noting that this is from the director of Old Henry.

Gordon-Levitt looks like Clifton Collins Jr. on that poster.

I’ll check this out for Gordon-Levitt alone but Old Henry was a very pleasant surprise so that makes me just that much more interested.

I’m not a huge fan of Patel. He just comes off as unlikable in everything I’ve seen him in.

Yeah. But if that’s the look they were going for they should have just got him.

This was not bad.

Funny to hear Southern accents on people that are not white.

The second time Himesh Patel and Lily James were a couple in a movie Yesterday the other movie.

A rare Joey Lauren Adams sighting too.

JGL's character seems very likeable and funny as the douche but
Spoiler:
then it gets dark and kills Lily Jame's dog and Will his partner in the end and you don't care for his character anymore.
