As she reaches her mid-thirties and quits her lucrative job, singleton Olivia finds herself unsure about her future and her relationships with her successful and wealthy friends. She begins to envy the security of her richer friends and, although their lives may seem easier, Olivia's friends have their problems too: screenwriters Christine and Patrick are unable to collaborate on their latest project, Jane and Aaron have lost the romance in their relationship, and Franny and Matt have difficulties handling the demands of parenthood.

I will readily admit that my reviews show that I am a bit of an easy grader on romantic comedies. Give me witty main characters with at least a modicum of chemistry, and a script that doesn’t insult my intelligence, and I will not regret watching it. Friends with Money seems to hit the ground running with a stroke of originality in that it covers not just one couple, but a group of friends all located somewhere on the relationship success spectrum. They provide enough depth to each character that it didn’t occur to me that the Jennifer Anniston character was probably the star, coming from the hugely successful show Friends, but to me this was a fine ensemble cast. Frances McDormand and Joan Cusack were great, for a start. There were a few cringeworthy moments, but not enough to distract my enjoying the performances. The ending for Anniston’s character was a nice finishing touch also.
