Excellent movie about the actions of wall street "professionals" during the beginning of the 2008 financial meltdown. Leaves the impression that almost everyone in the business knew they were packaging garbage mortgages and selling them off to naive buyers.Very sad tale of a system that supports greed and financial manipulations (bets) with no socially redeeming value. Obama, (our wonderful agent of "change") has shown us that you cannot depend on the politicians to protect you or indict the criminals.
Also don't expect to leave the theater with confidence that the financial system is self regulating or stable. The warning is: If you have any money in pensions or 401 (k), become educated in at least some of the aspects of financial management. IT IS YOUR MONEY AT RISK!!
Good acting and screenplay for a difficult to tell story.
