About the film
Five buddies, one butler, and a dog on an adventure so big... even the world's richest kid can't afford to miss it.
What it’s about
Richie Rich, the only heir to a vast fortune, lives in a world of unimaginable luxury where every wish is instantly granted. Yet his life of privilege is threatened when Laurence Van Dough, a scheming executive, plots to seize the family empire. As his parents are stranded at sea after a plane crash, Richie must act to protect his inheritance. With the help of new friends and his dog Dollar, he sets out to foil the takeover and save his family's wealth.
What hooks you
Macaulay Culkin stars as the young heir. The film's opulent setting includes a mansion later used in 'Hannibal' (2001), and a dog named Dollar whose spots are shaped like dollar signs. The production cast taller actors to make Culkin appear smaller, a detail that adds to the playful tone.
Who it’s for
It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys lighthearted family comedies with a touch of adventure, and for those who like stories where a child outsmarts greedy adults through wit and teamwork.

Trivia
- Because Macaulay Culkin was too tall for his role by the time filming began, tall actors were specifically cast for the adult roles so that the main character would appear shorter by comparison.
- The role of the butler was to be played by John Cleese, but he was ultimately replaced by Jonathan Hyde.
- The mansion where Rich lives is the same one as in the film "Hannibal" (2001).
- The film features a dog named Dollar, which looks like a Dalmatian, but instead of black spots it has dollar signs on its fur.
