An intelligent and interesting, important story

Rating: 8/10 (24 May 2018)

The Big Short is just a very good movie. All of the performances are very good, and of course the cast is phenomenal. I always love a well-done true story movie, and this is a fascinating story that accurately captures the unfortunate realities of finances. Direction is extremely impressive, and the weaving of characters and stories was very well handled. Would've liked to see even more from the other sides of the story, as it was primarily focused on those who bet on the short, but it's a reasonable choice to make. Very satisfying and well done, and very real.
