I didn't really have any expectations to "Blood Money" when I sat down to watch it. The only thing that I knew about the movie was the fact that John Cusack was in it, and that was the reason why I decided to watch it.

The storyline in "Blood Money" was fairly straight forward, albeit somewhat on the simplistic side. A plane goes down in a heavily wooded mountain area and a single parachute is spotted in the air. Three friends are rafting in the area, when the girl finds four bags of money, containing a staggering 8 million dollars. And a mysterious hiker in the woods is looking for his money.

Right, well it does sound fairly interesting, except that the story was fairly poorly put to life on the screen, making this less than a mediocre movie experience. Once you've sat through this movie once, chances are slim to none that you will ever watch this movie again.

The acting in the movie was adequate, although John Cusack was not being able to spread his creative talent out in the movie, and the character he was portraying felt somewhat too simplistic.

The last half of the movie is where the most action takes place and where the most story development takes place, so you could essentially skip the first part of the movie and go straight there. You wouldn't even be missing out on anything vital to the story.

Personally I didn't like the Lynn character very much, but I must admit that the ending to the movie was actually fairly good. Which does count for something for an otherwise stale and mediocre movie experience.

Lets Start off- I love John Cusack. But this movie was painful to watch. Three unlikable characters with no chemistry not worth naming, John Cusack as some weird nomad guy, and a bunch of stolen money all running around a state park. There is a bunch of nonsensical conversation, random outbursts of anger and violence, bizarre reactions, and unbelievable motivated scenes. Then only thing that keeps the viewers vaguely grounded is that they are fighting over money. The Ending leaves you with no spark or emotion, and you kind of just wish everyone died. This is rare advice from me, but skip this one.

John Cusack said it right. Horrible movie. Desparately wanted the chick to die through the entire film. What a little ungrateful...
