and effort went into the making of this film and the costume and sets were all very well made and looked authentic. I think the special effects which were used were also very good and none of them managed to look out of place.

A family move to Beverly Hills following a win on the lottery. 300 million dollars finds their old lifestyle clashing with their new neighbours and events are set for a clash in cultures.
When the Washingtons, a family from a poor rural town, suddenly win $300 million in the lottery, they gather up their things--and their wacky Aunt Girt--and move to ritzy Beverly Hills. Entering this new world of caviar and cocktail parties, the family must adjust to being uncomfortable fish out of water. When one of the family falls in love with a wealthy neighbour, things are turned upside-down. A hip-hop version of the conventional "rags to riches" story, BEVERLY HOOD is a hilariously irreverent comedy starring past and present members of Destiny's Child.
