Money

Money relegates its most interesting ideas and characters to the periphery and dives wholeheartedly into financial thriller territory that's only moderately gripping.

Money successfully depicts the drug-like high of chasing fool's gold and has the ability to lure the audience into its narcotic haze.

Although there are a couple of places in which it shoehorns the plot, this is for the most part a tightly written, fast-paced thriller with real bite.

"Money" suffers from being poorly edited and at two hours far too long.

While roughly true to the original plot of Wall Street, Money has a refreshed, modern take on the trappings of wealth.

Overall, the film is a bit formulaic and not one that gives us a ton of food for thought, but one that is fun and has interesting story and characters.
