When Becket Redfellow’s (Glen Powell) mother is disowned by her wealthy but controlling parents, he becomes ineligible to inherit any of the family’s $28 billion fortune. What’s a poor boy to do? When you’re the wily Becket, you hatch a scheme to murder the seven family members standing between you and the big bucks. But plot twist — he has to make the killings look accidental.

Cue the boating mishap, the hunting oopsie, etc. Inspired by the 1949 classic, Kind Hearts and Coronets, this sophisticated and clever film slays thanks in large part to Powell’s suave performance.

How to Make a Killing | In theaters Friday, Feb. 20 R
