Plot summary
Emily (Aubrey Plaza) is saddled with student debt and locked out of the job market due to a minor criminal record. Desperate for income, she takes a shady gig as a "dummy shopper," buying goods with stolen credit cards supplied by a handsome and charismatic middleman named Youcef (Theo Rossi). Faced with a series of dead-end job interviews, Emily soon finds herself seduced by the quick cash and illicit thrills of black-market capitalism, and increasingly interested in her mentor Youcef. Together, they hatch a plan to bring their business to the next level in Los Angeles.

what other movies try to be . . . and . . . fail at dismally.
Pretty Solid performance.
I think the reviews give you the overall gist of what this movie is all about but what's very striking, and entertaining is when Emily goes a little psycho. Not a ranting or dramatic psycho but a very focused, calculating one. Very solid performance, and the co-lead is a very good complement. If you liked Atomic Blonde, Anna, Salt and any other strong female lead that refuses to let the world get the better of them, you'll like this one.
Get the Money
Hooks You from The First Frame.
Ashamed that Credit Card Fraud is Almost Accepted Way to make (steal) Money, but you will likely Root For Emily (Aubrey Plaza). Tough Broad. Nice Jersey accent. Convincing Cast. Especially Youcef (Theo Rossi) his Mother Luna (Sheila Corsi) and Brother Khalil (Jonathan Avigdori) . Tight Flick. Never A Dull Moment. Ending Stays with You. Best See at Theatre and Pay Cash for Ticket.
