- Summary
-
- The financial meltdown from the perspective of a number of players: Michael Burry, a bizarre autistic-like stock-picking genius, and the first to realize that the market's housing boom is based on a 'house of cards' sham; Mark Baum, self-loathing fictional character whose firm picks up insider trading information from a wrong number phone call; Jarred Vennet, a smart-aleck broker who confirms the ominous suspicion; and Charles Gellar and James Shipley, small-time players who hit it big
- "It's an expertly calibrated entertainment, giving the actors room to play and reframing industry jargon as simple, elegant metaphors... And McKay orchestrates it all so deftly that you might not even notice how angry he is - or at least not right away."--Toronto Star
- "A funny, energetic and self-aware film that manages to entertain without diluting the complications - or the gravity - of its subject matter."--Los Angeles Times
- "McKay dares greatly by couching his anger about the 2008 financial crisis in a slapstick tragedy that makes us wish we could see every character in it behind bars."--Rolling Stone
