Margin Call

Kevin Spacey

Tight, well-crafted treatment of a financial meltdown told from the inside of a Goldman-like company. Intelligent script, solid cast and good sense of pacing easily held my interest. Slick, gleaming surfaces nicely captured the value system that produces these kinds of people.

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded...everybody rolls with their fingers crossed...everybody knows the fight is fixed... the poor stay poor the rich get rich...that's how it goes...and everybody knows.

There's no fix for this...we all just get to ride it all the way to the bottom.
