The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard

Don “The Goods” Ready (Jeremy Piven), a born salesman, and his sales team are vigilante sales people, called in to assist in the liquidation of a failing auto lot. But will the crazy antics and high pressure sales techniques this team brings to the table be enough to save the family business of Ben Selleck (James Brolin)? And, will Don ever heal from the loss he experienced in Albuquerque? movie_thegoods_still Fast talking and sometimes crude humor is the name of the game in this tongue in cheek look at the auto industry in small town America. While not really reaching the highest highs of comedy this summer, one could certainly do a lot worse. Performances from Ed Helms, Ving Rhames, and David Koechner don’t hurt either, in fact, the star power of this film is surprisingly high, including a brief appearances of Will Farrell and Alan Thicke. Maybe a matinee but more likely a rental, The Goods is rated R.
