Ratings and reviews

A fascinating expose of the greed that led to the collapse of the global economy, unfortunately, the film strays into pure activism in the final minutes. Regardless, if you watch this and don't want to punch a banker by the final credits, you're not a human.

Very well put together and a great expose of the financial system that will leave you angry by the end - unless you're a Wall Street banker.

Clears a lot of what happened. It gave me a better understanding of what actually took place. But obviously one needs to do more research to have even clearer image.
