Review of Born Rich

Born Rich (2003)
7/10
Sort of interesting
28 October 2003
How the Other Half Lives, only not the "other half" Jacob Riis had in mind!

These spoiled brats routinely spend a thousand dollars or more on an evening's entertainment, won't date outside their social circle, and resent it when people imply they have no right to be unhappy.

Of course they can be unhappy. They just don't have a right to whine about it.

A moderately good film by "one of them," who may show promise as a documentarian -- but I'll leave that assessment to *real* documentarians! I found the film interesting in a superficial way, Jamie Johnson's technique was decent (but nothing he couldn't have bought). Not very original, but being the first look from the inside out at the lives of these kinds of people, it was informative in an "ohmigod, shut up and make another mil!"-kind of way.
