   A comedy filled with entertaining characters, Greedy fails to be a successful film due to a tedious plot. Dirty old selfish Joe is rich and his snivelling greedy relatives want his money, so far, so funny.

   Feb 21, 2020 · Greedy is a joke but then again, not at all. This is a movie that patently has not been sufficient­ly thought through: no decision has been taken as to whether it’s comedy or polemic, an explainer or a drama. A creaky plot attempts to bridge these different modes.

   Is 'greedy' a comedy?

   • Greedy is an adorable and totally '90s dysfunctional family comedy. Nowadays, those types of movies are either too quirky to be funny or too dramatic to be considered comedies. Gone are the nineties, the golden age of modern cinema!

   Is 'greed' a 'best of British comedy'?

   • But where those films had genuine moral outrage as ballast, Greed can only manage hectoring bluster about global capitalism in the closing credits. It doesn’t help that much of the film, especially the party scene, feels like a “best of British comedy” variety show.

   Is 'greedy' a good movie?

   • Greedy is a film you may have passed on Showtime, or glanced at in the TV Guide and thought, "never heard of it". To be honest, I can't recall its stint in the theaters either. However, on the recommendation of my father, I gave it a chance. The interaction between all of the characters is terrific.

   Is 'greedy' more than a cartoon?

   • Greedy is never more than a cartoon, but if Green’s actions merit our moral outrage, the man responsible deserves to be taken seriously. Even if we are not meant to believe in McCreadie’s brilliance as a retailer, we ought to see a little chutzpah, or believe in the terror he can inspire.
