Both Ruthless People and Down and Out in Bevely Hills are peppered by exceptional actors and a very strong script.In an age of veneering as depth,these two movies are exploiting that veneer in a funny look at upper class life in 1980s America.All the success on display comes at a price,which we the viewer although gagging for the life,the pathway is full of landmines and lowlifes.The sheer fun of these movies only magnifies the reality of America,not wealth,but struggling to get by.The cast are exceptional,manny of whom should have leapt to international stardom alone on these films-but of course there can only be one King/Queen.Excellent films to watch whilst angry at today's world,for all the flimflam of today can be stripped away with these two biting satires-EXCELLENT.
