Watching it felt like being a fly on the wall during the financial meltdown. The tension, moral dilemmas, and stellar cast left me stunned.
This is amazing work. Kevin again provide a phenomenal piece. You don’t have to be a financial expert to follow along the movie
This movie is worth seeing because it was done so amazing
Quite short and not a very filling ending but good entertainment
Less a thriller and more like watching a car crash in slow motion. Fine ensemble acting with Irons especially diabolical here.
Good movie about predatory banking. It's a little slow as the subject isn't exactly action packed but the cast keeps you interested.
Interesting for finance world, boring if not
The most exciting boring movie I’ve ever seen.
A weaker, but worthy addition to the sorely neglected wall street/business sub-genre. Lacks style, but accurately portrays the industry.
Among the greatest movies about finance. Slow dark pace, a very realistic setting & strong performance from the entire cast
