They have a small business called “Hand and Foot Incorporated” which is why their dad lets them be bullies, because he’s so proud of them having a small business. Preston’s life is hard because he has two asshole older brothers who are allowed to move all of their junk into his room, and also they steal his life savings with no consequences. (Fun fact: the film’s director, Rupert Wainwright was apparently on Millionaire Matchmaker in 2010 which is sad, but also good for him?)Īnyway, Blank Check is on Netflix and I watched it so you don’t have to. It’s completely and utterly bananas and even the 90’s isn’t a good enough excuse for how this movie got made. Blank Check was written by Blake Snyder who literally wrote the book on screenwriting, so you’d think it would be a better movie, but it’s not. Due to a series of hijinks, Preston gets a million dollars in cash and then spends it on a castle and a water slide until he learns a valuable lesson about family, I guess. If you don’t remember, it told the story of Preston Waters, a 12-year old kid who gets his bike run over by an escaped convict and money launderer who leaves him a blank check to pay for damages, which Preston fills out for one million dollars. Do you remember the movie Blank Check? I had it on VHS and it came in a plastic white VHS case and I watched it way too many times.
