Its funny how I came across this movie. I was in a saloon in Orlando, USA getting a haircut and this movie was played there. I saw like first 15 minutes of the movie and loved it - the direction (the kind which used to be when I was little. I am 24 now and still loved the movie. LOL), the story, people in it etc. So, after I was done with my haircut I asked what was the name of the movie to the man who played it - "Blanck Check", he said.

Me and my friend decided to make fun of a terrible movie because, why not? Well we didn't expect to see this horror of a film full of pedophilia and cringy dialogue. The main character's parents are jerks and huge idiots and no one thinks it's suspicious that a kid is handling this millionaires finances...or that the millionaire is spending all his money on toys...all of it. The main FBI agent (Chasey,Janice or something like that) agreed to date the ten year old main character in about six years. Very wrong. On top of that she kissed him on the lips and we closed safari at that point, not wanting to see how much further the movie would go. Awful movie, do not watch, not even for fun. It's not even funny how bad this movie is.I would have just spent the million dollars on a replica of Christopher Nolan's batmobile...just saying.

Brian Boswell plays 11 year old Preston who only wants one thing. Well, everything. But it mainly boils down to money. It doesn't help that his older brothers have stolen what little life savings he had and on top of that need his room for their marketing job.Things keep getting worse when a town bully decides to embarrass him and later steal his birthday check. Incidentally bad guy Carl Quigley (played by Miguel Ferrer) happens to run over Preston's bike and explodes at him, but the town bully seems to decide to give Quigley some trouble. Quigley apparently just out of prison decides to write a check for the bike but seeing a cop, gives Preston the check with only his signature and takes off in haste. Preston later realizes this and fills it out for $1,000,000. But what's really going on is that bank owner Biderman (Michael Lerner) is supposed to give $1 million to a guy named Juice (Tone Loc), and just so happens to mistaken Preston for Juice.So now, the theme takes place with Preston (also using alias Macintosh, the name he gave when prompted after buying the house, where he used his Macintosh computer to speak) partying like no tomorrow and dating an undercover bank lady Shay (Karen Duffy). But these three guys are after Preston, yet unaware that Shay and the FBI are also after these three guys and eager to meet this so called Macintosh. And one thing for sure is that this ain't going to end to happy (well, it might for a PG film but it'll get a bit tense before a happy ending) While this film has so many flaws, I have found it very addicting to this day. I've probably seen it +20 times.For one thing, the cast of actors/actresses is pretty decent.Miguel Ferrer (from Another Stakeout and Hot Shots 2) seems to be his usual 'bad behavior' bad guy (popping a little kid's balloon and cutting Biderman's phone).James Rebhorn (from Carlito's Way and My Cousin Vinny) plays as Preston's dad, and seems very PC type.Jayne Atkinson (from 24 as Karen Hayes) plays as Preston's mom.Tone Loc plays as bad guy Juice who was supposed to get the million dollars. He makes several wise cracks throughout the film.Michael Lerner (from When do we Eat) plays as a big fat bank owner Biderman, who seems very funny when it comes to making excuses.Karen Duffy plays as the undercover FBI agent passing off as a bank teller who Preston has the hots for.Debbie Allen plays as Preston's party planner, who just seems to show up out of the blew and seems to take over the film in the few scenes she can (although it's very funny when someone pulls part of her fake wig off and she screeches).And Rick Ducommun plays as Preston's friendly limo driver who at one point goes on about how he doesn't understand those philosophical expressions.Overall a very flawed but enjoyable film. The actors/actresses above really keep the film entertaining.

Blank check is one of those kids movies that could have been a great suspense thriller for the kids but instead it's a tired lame home alone ripoff that isn't worth a dime. Quigley is a criminal who just escaped from jail and gets his hidden million dollars from a big score and then we meet Preston a frustrated kid whose room is taken over by his brothers to start a business and obviously dad treats his brothers better because they make money the same day he goes to a kid's birthday party and since his dad is a cheapo he goes on little kids rides while the other kids go on roller coasters then he receives a birthday card and a check of 11 bucks how cheap is this family? So he goes to the bank to open an account and meets the gorgeous Shea Stanley were her parents mets fans? he finds out he needs 200 to open a account meanwhile quigley gives his million to his banker friend and finds out the bills are marked so he will send a lackey named juice to get the unmarked ones when Preston leaves his bike gets run over by quigley he's about to write a check when he spots the cops and bolts back home his parents scolded him about his busted up bike and gets grounded what? their kid got almost run over and they worried about a bike? So Preston forges a million dollar check via his computer and comes back only to be escorted to the banker thinking that he's juice he gives Preston the money but the real juice came and realized they been duped by a kid! So Preston buys a mansion under the name Macintosh gets a limo driver who says unfunny jokes and goes on a epic shopping spree then he spots Shea and talks about opening his account kid you're loaded and you're talking about opening an account? We soon realized Shea is actually an FBI agent tracking down quigley and his two other accomplice's then he told his cheapy dad he's got a job working for Mr Macintosh and spends the day riding go karts playng vr games and hanging out with his limo driver buddy then he goes out on a date with Shea in a fancy restaurant what a 10 year old wining and dining a 20 something FBI agent? Afterwards he takes her to a street geyser and playing around in the water messing up Shea's 300 dollar dress yet she takes it well if this was a bit realistic she would slap him for messing up her expensive dress so quigley and the others still mad interrogates a little kid and quickly spills the beans and Preston is being chased by quigley in a scene taken from the original script and afterwords he is hosting Mr Macintoshs birthday which is really his birthday when he discovers he couldn't pay for the party he sits in his chair and dad talks to MacIntosh which he doesn't know it's his son he's talking to and talks about Preston should be a real kid and has his whole childhood ahead of him and wants Preston to go home early what? an hour ago you were grilling him about his finances! so Preston asks everyone to leave and sits alone pondering when quigley and the others break in to the house to make Preston pay and so he faces then in a finale that rips off home alone quigley gets spun around in a ball while Preston is driving a go kart juice gets hit in the groin and more antics ensue until the trio get Preston cornered and when it seem all hope is lost Shea and a bunch of SWAT guys come to save the day and so quigley and his crew get sent to jail but is there any hope for Preston and Shea? there is and she kisses him in the lips what? what? what? A grown woman kissed a kid in the lips. come on is she mentally disabled? I mean an FBI agent who knows the country's laws would risk her career to kiss a kid? she could get arrested on the spot! and the most creepiest part of all is that isn't goodbye and she'll see him in 6 or 7 years! oh dear and so he comes home to his family celebrating his birthday so the moral of the story is love and respect can be bought? What are they smoking? The bottom line is that is a waste of time the morals are whacked it's flat as a tortilla the kid is annoying the villains are lame the comic relief isn't funny the brothers are unlikable the dad is even worse the romantic subplot is creepy the plot's shallow and the only saving grace is the cinematography from bill pope which went on to shoot the matrix trilogy and two of the spider-man films so people don't waste your money and go watch home alone instead. This has been a Samuel Franco review.
