Clever, fun, necessary.

Interesting look on recession
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Personally went through losing my home after the recession so this film really uncovered how the system works in loopholes and hope home owners don't educate themselves to avoid a disaster.

Entertaining and Educational
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An excellent movie that actually explains the 2008 financial crisis and demonstrates how it got out of control. The language is a little over the top and some of the drama is unnecessary.

A must-see

Good Movie
