Unless your a mortgage broker, stay away.
Brilliant movie! C Pro
Really interesting story - definitely worth seeing. Christian Bale's character was boring, but I'm just not a fan of his. Overall, not an exciting movie, but very interesting.
5 out 5 stars: absolutely, yes. this is educational, funny so the learnings get across the point, historical, non-fiction. everyone who has been affected in one way or another in a big way in the years since 2008 should see this. informative like movies "Margin Call", "Chasing Madoff", and "Wolf of Wall Street". worth the see.
Best christmas movie. Truth for a change. Documentary/drama/documentary/drama. Actually understandable though a really complicated subject.
I thought this was a great movie about the housing bubble & helped in the understanding of this terrible crash of the banking system. Good performances by Gosling & Carrell. It deserves four stars!
disappointed, asked for our money back
we left after the first ten minutes. Using the F word in the opening scene, and some woman stripping shows everything...can't we do better than this. If you need this type of entertainment, there are places on the vegas strip.
This is not a movie for someone that just mindlessly wants to be entertained. You actually have to think while watching this movie. Though I was not totally enthralled with the way in which it was filmed, it was a fascinating presentation of the housing bubble debacle. The total greed and complete disregard for other people is quite shocking. Be informed.....go see this movie.
Carell and Gosling haven't been this funny since Crazy, Stupid, Love!
