Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Eat the Rich looks deceptively haphazard, though keeping this sort of comedy on-target takes discipline, a willingness to throw out a lot of material before finding the stuff that works.
Rotten: It feels like punk on the downward swing, after most of its rude energy has dissipated.
Rotten: Although writers Peter Richardson and Pete Richens have a flair for one-liners and recasting comic British standbys (rich, poor, twit, villain, big-breasted, dark-skinned), they strain so hard to be funny, you wish they'd relax.
Fresh: Make what you will of the politics, as a series of sketches it delivers the laughs.

Eat The Rich
Excellent... If you love Motorhead and The young ones then this is a must. It's a Great Movie Period. You Will Love It.
