High Expectations Fulfilled

Rating: 8/10 (4 January 2016)

With such an all-star cast, I had high expectations for this film, and it lived up to them! Fast paced and smart, these financial tycoons were easy to love and hate! Adam McKay did a wonderful job capturing all the different performances in this film as well as explaining what happened in 2008 with the housing bubble. It was done in a fun way without it getting confusing and boring! Michael Lewis must be proud that his novel has turned into such a Hollywood hit! And with Brad Pitt behind AND in front of the camera, the odds that this movie wasn't going to be amazing were slim. Loved every aspect of this film and looking forward to seeing its cast and crew on the red carpet for a much deserved awards season.
