Just watched it today.

All star cast and great depiction of how things potentially went down during the last recession. Definitely makes me want to dig deeper into things

Didn't even realize that Penn Badgley was getting looks before 'You' dropped on Netflix.

Keep getting YouTube recommendations to rewatch bits and pieces. This movie is amazing. GOAT performances all around. The comments section has some great breakdowns of the nuances of the characters, how the CEO feigns friendliness, how there is an undercurrent behind Demi Moore's character being told about the problem with CDOs in the past and chickens are coming home to roost, etc.

I didn't appreciate this movie until reading comments. When the CEO asks for a plan and neither of them had thought to come to the meeting with a solution :wow: Didn't have to say a word just the silence was all he needed to know.

Outstanding film. This and the big short were two shockingly accurate tales of the same crisis. Watching them back to back is awesome. The "it's all made up" speech by Irons was amazing.

Kevin Spacey probably had the worst performance of the entire movie with says a lot about both the great performances by everyone else, down to the analysts, as it does about spacey who was a bit of a caricature in comparison.

9/10 easily

Jeremy Irons did his thing in this movie!
