The worst waste of money in the year 2000

Rating: Null/10 (15 April 2000)

I've seen the Texas Chainsaw Massacre series and many other movies that were more gruesome so the bloodletting in the film is not what irked me. I've seen dark comedies like Very Bad Things, and I actually found them enjoyable. Also, I've seen Leaving Las Vegas and Chasing Amy and enjoyed them immensely in spite of the strong sexual content. This movie didn't really deliver the goods on any level for me. The dialogue was uninspired and completely ridiculous at times. Yes, it was satirical regarding the Wall Street mentality of the 1980's, but it was about 5 minutes of average material stretched into 2 hours of bad cinema. The ending of the movie was truly horrific (and I don't mean bloody or shocking--it was just plain stupid). If you really, really wanted to see this film, I'd wait for video or see it at bargain time. Had I paid full price for this flick, I would have started a riot at the theater. Don't waste your time or hard-earned money.
