Over my Head

Rating: 4/10 (15 March 2016)

I gotta admit, I didn't watch the Oscars but this movie was up for an award and I'm now convinced that the Oscars are probably fixed because The Big Short cannot be enjoyed by an average viewer and so I'm wondering who exactly watched this movie in order to get it nominated for best picture.
I'm being completely honest when I say that the only people who can watch and understand this movie are people who are directly connected to or effected by the subject matter, which is the housing bubble that allowed people to get home loans whether they could afford a home or not and then when the rates went up, many people lost their home.
The dialogue is so complicated and sophisticated that unless you are a real estate agent, a stock broker, a banker, or an employee of the housing administration, OR someone that lost their home, you will not understand this movie because it's a bunch of numbers and real estate jargon and very fast paced and hard to follow !
The all- star cast is probably what got this movie nominated for an Oscar but the movie itself is not for the average Joe.
