Customer Ratings & Reviews

I like movies that are based on true event, this one is no different. This movie makes you pay close attention to your financial institute.

This was a great movie about the housing market bottoming out. It was really sad. And they say it will happen again and be worse!

Solid acting and writing. Takes a complex story and helps open our eyes to the failings of big banks and their effects on everyday people.

The Big Short is a very well made movie & much deserving of its Oscar nominations. Christian Bale & Steve Carrell, playing against type, stand out in the film.

Managed to make one of the most devastating financial crisis very entertaining and informative. My daughter even learned a thing or two.

Great story, great acting. No matter how many times I watch this movie it never gets old.

Enjoyed the 'dramatization' of the '09 market crash. Sad series of events but worth watching.

Gives an interesting fictional perspective to a tragic financial event in the lives of Americans brought on by greedy and self-serving financial institutions.

Always check for a list of movies we're interested in owning. Prices are a bit too high most of the time but this one was a steal.

Do not vote before you have watched this movie. And not just serious, they do the impossible, and make the serious entertaining.

What an amazing ensemble of actors, rarely this good crew!

A fantastic inside view of the fraud and corruption going on with Wall Street and the banks during the collapse of the housing market

Great movie that shows the start of the housing market collapse. Sad that it happened but great insight into how the country operates

As always Mr. Bale delivers good acting. The movie is fast and requires full attention and in some points rewinding back to understand some of the terms mentioned

My wife really enjoyed this movie, very smart and keeps you guessing how the housing market is one of the most profitable out there.

Learned a lot about buying short and the creation of a Market to buy Short for mortgages. Pretty scary stuff, base on reality.

It was interesting to see the movie industry's take on how America's greedy housing and stock brokers/banking industry magnates were allowed to destroy so many.

Can't ask for a better or more funny and informative movie about the issues that led to the 2008 financial crisis. A must see.

Michael Lewis continues to find the right place at the right time. Money Ball, The Blindside, what could be next for this genius?

This is a great informative movie. I read the book first so it was a good review. I hope we, as a country, never get there again.
