Our take
Glen Powell plays a disowned heir murdering wealthy relatives to reclaim his birthright in a stylized eat-the-rich satire. Rated M. Expect multiple killings, black comedy, strong language and tonal swings between charm and violence. Not for kids despite the playful title.
Story (may spoil tone)
Disowned at birth by his obscenely wealthy family, blue-collar Becket Redfellow will stop at nothing to reclaim his inheritance, no matter how many relatives stand in his way.

Talk after watching
- Becket targets family for money. Where does satire end and glamorizing crime begin?
- The film riffs on classic inheritance thrillers. What makes dark comedy feel acceptable on screen?
