The Big Short: Witty, Entertaining, Educative

Rating: 9/10 (4 May 2019)

McKay approaches this adaptation of Michael Lewis' book with wit, energy and a surprising degree of clarity. But if the movie is a crackerjack entertainment, it's one with a conscience.
"The Big Short" will affirm your deepest cynicism about Wall Street while simultaneously restoring your faith in Hollywood. In many ways the movie is a startlingly ambitious film, is modest about what it can do. It offers no solutions, and no comfort. The best it can do is put down a marker. A must watch
