More of a docudrama if anything else. Well done and great acting.

This movie was based on the housing crash in 2008. Don't think it'll happen here in Canada, but then again, that's exactly what the USA said, so it makes me wonder now. Go see it with and open mind. It'll be great to get some opinions on the matter.

I sat in the back row of the theatre but had to leave after thirty minutes because I was motion sick. This was not an "action" movie but the camera moved around so fast that I felt that I was on a wild roller coaster. This coupled with the fact that the Cineplex theatre had some heating issues; it was incredibly warm, almost had me tossing my cookies. I was interested in the plot initially but found the story hard to follow despite my physical symptoms.

I can't say I liked it, because millions of people lost their jobs and houses in 2008, but this really puts things into perspective. Are people really that ignorant and woefully blind?? I hope not.

I had no idea what this movie was about. It's an eye-opener for sure! Well down and thank you! I'm being careful with my money and my investments after watching this!

AWFUL. No steady cam. If you are prone to motion sickness, do NOT see this movie. Boring, dull, no story line with the characters. (except for a fleeting moment with Steve Carell). Just thinking about this movie gives me a headache.

A disappointment. The camera kept flashing so many times on the scenes it was hard to watch. Wait until it comes on the tv. Not worth seeing in a theatre.

Loved this movie. It was very engaging and easy to understand. If you don't understand the world of finance and global markets than you probably won't enjoy it as much though.
