Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

mtubiolo I found that with this film spite all to people being rich children with the money to do as they please kinda like the lawyer said they could sue him for the film if they want do to the irony in it all these people are so awkward about money that they probably wouldnt understand the price of a dollar if you had all the money in the world gifted to you you would waste it if you inherited it like these kids you would feel that much to be common if it was given to you over time you would have a plan for it but if you worked for it and kept working after you wouldn't waste it you wouldn't abuse it you would understand the value of what you have since the value of this money is what they don't understand to them a dollar is petty or to miniscule to be a fraction or percent it is nothing they can throw it away they talk about a normal night out being eight hundred dollars a night as a small bit for drinks WHAT! Who spends that much and brushes it off it is a waste and just ruins the idea of hard work and paying off why work if you got that much money to learn the value of the dollar and not waste thousand

osm5 I liked this a lot, and I was prepared not to,Sure, he had unusual access to heirs and heiresses because he is one himself, but why the heck not? Use whatcha got. Grow where you're planted.Sue me, but I love hearing rich folks tell their stories. I thought the film was well put together. Not just the interviews, which were insightful, but the post work with old photos of the founding fathers and a sensible timeline. I like the "when did you first realize you were rich" segment, that progressed to issues like marriage and prenups.The whole film was well produced and edited, well photographed and very interesting. We ended up discussing it a lot afterward. My favorite takeaway, the director's father, "why would you work if you didn't have to?"One of us said, "I think they were trying to say it was hard not having something to strive for." But my husband and I heard something different, that they were grateful for having their life taken care of, the basics of survival at any rate, and were dealing with other issues like loneliness, which hadn't occurred to me, that this is really a small club.I'm fascinated by the fact that Jamie's father is an artist and I'm trying to find his art. A scene featured a painting over the fireplace that might have been his, but the studio scene made it clear that the father did not want his art on this film. I liked the painting I saw, and it made me curious about his paintings. If anyone knows where I can see his art, please email osm5@fastmail.fm thanks.

Hunky Stud I got this VHS tape (HBO demo-tape for Emmy consideration, air date: October 27th, 2003) from a yard sale, i don't remember watching it. As I was watching it, I sort of remembered that I have seen it before, I just didn't remember much about it. While I was almost finished watching it, my 19-years-old VCR (made in November of 1995) stopped working! tragically, it doesn't make sense for me to buy a new one just to watch a few remaining VHS tapes that i still have. how ironic is that if this happened to one of those rich people in this show, i am sure that they will go buy a new vcr just to finish watching this tape. good thing, I found this on youtube, so I was able to finish watching it. i didn't know that those kind of people exited until I watched this show. Sure, there are rich people, but i didn't know that there are children who are already super rich, who don't have to worry about money since day one. Overall, this is a good show, but I felt that it was a little superficial. Also, Jamie Johnson didn't spend much time talking about himself. They could have talked a little bit more, and tell us more about their lives, such as if they have personal assistants, do they ever have to spend time cleaning their own rooms, buying groceries, just what they do as rich people everyday. I enjoyed it.

Caren Nicholson I have to say when I first came across the idea of this film, I was a bit repulsed. The idea of listening to a bunch of rich kids whine about how hard it was to be rich was unappealing. After watching, I'm very happy I gave this film a chance. Jamie Johnson has real potential as a film maker. Like any film, Born Rich is meant to manipulate your emotions to get you interested in the story. What surprised me is how effective it was at doing this. Most people in the reviews I've read remark on how some of the people in this film are evil incarnate, like the model, the "baron" Carlo, and Luke Weil. This film got me thinking what kind of a childhood would have driven them to act in this manner. What morals, if any, were instilled in these kids to make them think their behavior acceptable?I, like many other reviewers, were struck at how composed and poised Ivanka Trump was. If Real Estate doesn't work, she should seriously consider politics!Personally, the character I related to most in this film was Georgina Bloomberg. As a fellow equestrian, I understand what she is going through. I spent a lot of money on my show horse, more than the value of some people's homes. Every time I win a show, I constantly hear people saying how it was my horse, or my expensive trainer, who caused me to win, not my own hard work and dedication. It takes a lot of self- confidence to face that kind of criticism constantly, and to take it gracefully. Overall this was an excellent film! I highly recommend taking the time to watch it.
