King's Ransom

A wealthy and obnoxious businessman stages a mock kidnapping to thwart his gold-digging wife's plan to ruin him financially, but things take an unexpected turn when two other individuals also set their sights on his vast fortune. The film, starring Anthony Anderson, Jay Mohr, Kellita Smith, and Donald Faison, is a black comedy that descends into chaos as the three plans intersect in hilarious and crass ways. With its poor reception and underwhelming box office performance, King's Ransom proves to be a laughing stock of a comedy.
