Ein schrecklich reiches Paar

About This Movie

So, 'Ein schrecklich reiches Paar' is quite the quirky flick from 2017. You’ve got this unorthodox millionaire's wife, Eva, who finds herself in a bit of a pickle when her husband, Rainer, decides to pull the plug on their marriage. The catch? She’s got nothing to show for it, thanks to a rather harsh prenup. The film dives into this darkly comedic scheme where she fakes her own kidnapping to snag some cash. It's a wild ride, really. The tone is a mix of absurdity and desperation, with pacing that keeps you engaged, even if a bit erratic at times. The performances are decent, though I think Eva really steals the show with her chaotic energy. The themes of greed and deception are pretty pronounced, making you wonder just how far someone will go for money.
