Instead, when these suburban innocents travel to the big city to fulfill their adolescent dreams, they almost get mugged. But the quick intervention of street-wise hooker V (Melanie Griffith) saves them. And not only that... she does a strip-tease so that they'll have succeeded in their mission, and then drives them safely home. But already one of the boys perceives the heart of gold that lies beneath her tawdry exterior -- and he's decided to marry her off to his widowed dad (Ed Harris). [More]

John Mattson's script is every bit as silly as it sounds; it dawdles, stumbles, stalls, embarrasses both itself and the audience, and is routinely formulaic to boot.

This execrable film sinks ever lower as its dirty joke of a plot unfolds.

With a tip of the hat to the performers, this is a misguided comedy with Hall of Shame pedigree. Its commercial prospects are quick, down and dirty.

This feelgood romantic comedy is short on laughs, sexual chemistry, and the thriller subplot won't produce any white knuckles.

I can hear the pitch for this one: 'a sex comedy for the whole family.'

Every bit as misguided as its appalling premise would suggest.

Richard Benjamin, laboring under the idea that this is an enchanting premise, directs such episodes as if he were Norman Rockwell in a trenchcoat.

Like PRETTY WOMAN, it's a trite and unrealistic "Hookers have feelings too" movie.

Not bad enough that it's witless and bland, but what a waste of Ed Harris!

Ridiculous, tasteless, offensive and unfunny, Milk Money was the perfect final film to see in this string of losers. It made all the others seem better.
