Steve Martin stands out as the prime moving force in the film.

In some parts, the humor is a little offensive because Martin, who is white outside, has been raised in an afro-american family from Mississippi and never realized something was quite different. However, it shows money it is not everything that matters. The story tells about a man who goes from being poor to being rich... but unfortunately never stops being incredibly a jerk. And there are some really funny scenes that can make us laugh.
