Critic Reviews
-
Laremy Legel, Film.com
Carefully crafted performances and taut pacing carry the day.
-
Stephen Farber, Hollywood Reporter
Topical drama about the financial crisis lacks the visceral punch to grab an audience.
-
Justin Chang, Variety
A methodical, coolly absorbing boardroom thriller.
-
Stephen Cole, Globe and Mail
Spacey is mesmerizing as Sam, a weary, aging lion losing his appetite for antelope. And Irons plays the villain with magisterial ease.
-
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
It's a realistic take on what happens when high-flying money speculators suddenly hit ground. It's also a great calling card for J.C. Chandor, the writer/director making his feature debut.
