Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"Entertainment predominates, but entertainment with smarts, and a well-honed edge." - 10/28/2011 Wall Street Journal


"[R]elentless in its honesty and shrewd in its insights and techniques..." - 10/21/2011 New York Times


"The gripping intrigue of MARGIN CALL is the way it puts you right up close to the decision-making, the mix of greed, fear, and cunning." -- Grade: A- - 11/04/2011 Entertainment Weekly


"MARGIN CALL isn't' the first film to peer into the moneyed, aspirationally heartless world of finance, and it's not going to be the last, but it's got a fair shot of being the one with the most masterful timing....It's a tense but contemplative exploration of being on the other side of one of those mirrored skyscraper windows..." - 10/20/2011 Movieline


3.5 stars out of 4 -- "[A] smart, harrowing and mordant drama set inside a fictional Wall Street firm at the trip-wire moment just before the 2008 financial collapse." - 10/21/2011 Washington Post


4 stars out of 5 -- "Kevin Spacey excels as a conscience-wrestling head of trading; Paul Bettany matches him as a pragmatic alpha male..." - 02/01/2012 Total Film


"[A]s a vision of what happened when the first few loose pebbles of the current worldwide disaster slid inexorably towards an avalanche -- and why -- MARGIN CALL is all too horribly plausible." - 02/01/2012 Sight and Sound
