One Location, yet It Stays Fresh!
Jan 04, 2008

Despite the fact that this movie takes place in one location, it does not drag or get boring - that in and of itself is a HUGE accomplishment! I thought the story was great how it put the main character into... Full review

With Jeff Probst as director, I didn't have high expectations. The premise sounded interesting so I thought I would give it a go. Happily, this movie was much more than I expected. Enough for me to write my first movie review.... Full review

I thought this movie was fun and interesting, the story is simple, but the modern setting and the idea of the lottery ticket made it attention getting. For a movie with no great effects and sounds, i could not walk away... Full review
Great Film... Confusing Plot Twist
Jan 22, 2006
Joe Herbert - imdb.com
This was a great movie, for what it was. 10/10 as far as first time directors doing a film on a 1 million dollar budget. The rest of the message is a SPOLER ---------- The ONLY thing that keeps me from... Full review

Finder's Fee has an exceedingly decent premise at its heart, but the writer (and we know who HE is) doesn't have the skill to pull it off; there are plotholes and contrivances galore, the stupidest one being the way the cops... Full review

Jeff Probst tight, unassuming film was a rare find. Saw it on cable, and since this is an indie film, one has to take one's hat to the director for having made the movie. The question that came to my mind... Full review

Critics Reviews


Film Threat, Hollywood's Indie V
Finder's Fee" is a capably made film. However it is not best film material, it shouldn't even have made the top five. Avery is played by James Earl Jones, who adds some well needed credibility to the cast. Everything in this script is predictable. ... Full Review

Film Threat, Hollywood's Indie V
This is the moral dilemma facing the lead character of "Finder's Fee," the writing and directing debut of Jeff Probst. James Earl Jones is simply fantastic Funny story. All the actors burst out laughing and the crew went about their business. ... Full Review

Qwipster's Movie Reviews
While Probst deserves some credit for a competent directorial job, as a writer, Finder's Fee is so flagrant in its story manipulations, it easily ranks as one of the most implausible films I've seen in many a year. Going completely to waste is a pretty decent cast of actors ... Full Review

While Probst deserves some credit for a competent directorial job, as a writer, Finder's Fee is so flagrant in its story manipulations, it easily ranks as one of the most implausible films I've seen in many a year. I fear that if you do, you may miss out on one of the most unintentionally funny films you'll ever see, with plot turns so wildly contrived, you might just have to pause repeatedly to be sure not to laugh so hard that you'll miss one. ...
