The Goods Review

The Goods tells the story of hotshot used car salesman Don "The Goods" Ready. When a used car dealership in California is facing bankruptcy, they call on Don and his crew to save them.

Don is played by Jeremy Piven. His performance is lackluster at best. It feels like we've seen his character in numerous other movies. There really isn't anything about Piven's character that feels real.

There are a few good laughs here and there, but they reuse some of the same material over and over again. They even go as far as throwing Will Ferrell out of a plane to try to get some laughs. The worst part about the movie is that they try to reuse some of the material in a different way. This humor might appeal to some people, but it's nothing we haven't seen in countless movies before it.
