억만장자 할아버지의 유산을 상속 받기 위한 조건으로 괴상한 임무들을 차례차례 수행해야하는 처지가 된 망나니 손자의 이야기.

30일 안에 3천만불을 흔적도 없이 다 써버릴 수 있을까?

이건 바로 클래식 갑부 코미디의 현대판 격인 이 작품에서 리차드 프라이어가 해내야 했던 숙제였다. 매번 삼진아웃만 당하는 야구선수 몽고메리 브류스터(프라이어)는 자신이 괴팍한 수천만장자(흄 크로닌) 친척의 상속권을 가진 유일한 생존자임을 알게 된다. 몬티는 3억불의 상속을 눈 앞에 두게 되는데 단, 그가 꼭 ‘30일 이내에 아무런 자산 취득 없이 3천만불을 다 써버릴 수 있을 경우’에만 이라는 조건이 붙는다. 그렇지 못할 경우에는 한 푼도 받지 못하는 것이다. 그 거금을 쓰도록 돕는 이들은 존 캔디, 로네트 맥키, 그리고 스티븐 콜린스이다. 월터 힐 감독과 로렌스 고든과 조엘 실버의 연출, 그리고 ‘대역전 (Trading Places)’의 시나리오 팀의 역량을 모은 이 엉뚱한 흥청망청식 코미디는 연령과 관계없이 진정으로 유머를 이해하는 팬들의 웃음에 대한 욕구를 만족시켜 주는 미국식의 기상천외한 이야기이다.
