Synopsis

The Money Pit (1986) is a comedy with Tom Hanks you can watch online on iFILM. Kicked out of their Manhattan apartment, a young couple grab a sprawling country mansion at a price that's almost too good. The catch shows up the moment the keys change hands.

Lawyer Walter and violinist Anna sink every dollar they have into the house, then watch it fall apart around them — the staircase collapses, the bathtub drops straight through the floor, the wiring catches fire, and the contractors keep promising it'll be done in "two weeks." Every repair triggers a fresh disaster, and the chaos slowly chews through the couple's relationship. Hanks goes full slapstick here, while Shelley Long plays an Anna who's running out of patience.

Director Richard Benjamin loosely riffs on the 1948 classic Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House. The humor is broad and almost cartoonish, one gag stacked on the next, with no interest in depth. It's the right pick when you just want a goofy, easygoing 80s comedy. Stream The Money Pit (1986) online on iFILM.
