5 out of 5 stars.
Adult Stuff-
After 10- How are they going to tackle this issue with this cast? I am so curious!
After 40- Holy crap! This movie has my attention! Smart, funny, and you can understand it.
By The End- I wanted to watch it all over again. A great movie.
After Checking IMDB- Directed by Adam McKay, who shares the screen play credit with Charles Randolph. The book credit goes to Michael Lewis. The cast is an incredibly diverse group; too many to mention, but they all deserve recognition for helping breath such life into this movie. I feel the powerful cast that was assembled for this film was needed because of how important it is.
I do not often write about movies like this one. I enjoy the simple pleasures of beautiful women and big explosions. Fast cars and fight scenes are what I was raised on. While I love the dynamic environment that is today's entertainment industry, this movie takes on an important issue that hits close to home, and left many homeless. If the lost homes, savings and futures weren't bad enough, it's made worse when so many people still don't understand what happened. This movie solves that problem. It breaks down, in a surprisingly entertaining way, something that is typically a sleep aid. After watching this movie I had a better grasp and understanding of how unbridled greed destroyed so many lives. I had read Peter Schiff's book "Crash Proof" and had what I felt was a basic understanding of the bubble. This movie explained it better and was able to delve deeper into the even bigger picture of the bonds. Gaining a better understanding however did not make me feel any better about the bail outs, nor did it ease my frustration over what I perceive as a complete lack of justice.
I reserve 5 star ratings for movies I would love to see a sequel too. In the case however I am hoping that the sequel deals with the next bubble that is threatening the economy, and if it isn't to much to ask, maybe it can come out before the shit hits the fan?
Until next time everybody, remember, Protect Your Privates!
