Interesting, and scary.

Rating: 8/10 (16 March 2019)

Directed by Adam McKay, this is one of the best movies of the year. It is about the financial crisis of 2007 and 08, a topic I have virtually no interest in. Also, I am someone who doesn't financial terms. The movie knows this, and it had a very creative way of explaining the audience what they don't understand. I will also say this, it had some ingenious celebrity cameos.
The cast of the movie is great. Steve Carrell and Christian Bale do most of the heavy lifting. Ryan Gosling, amazing as always, is the funny one. Brad Pitt, in the limited screen time that he is given,
Eaves a lasting impression.
The movie is also good in the way that it forces you to keep up. If you zone out, you'll probably miss out on details. In some places, the movie is intentionally frantically edited and directed to give us a documentary like feel. This is a great movie. For people who love a good screenplay, or good acting, or good humor, this should be a treat.
4 out of 5 for me.
