I had high expectations due to all of the great reviews.  Hubby and I saw it, and I have to admit that I was somewhat bored.  The acting was excellent, but honestly, I almost fell asleep a couple of times!

Thank you for letting us know! And I hope it comes here soon b/c ts not here yet. Ugh I get mad how they release movies to certain areas and not ours but I did read its wide release for this movie is Jan 8th. WE will be seeing it! Ryan Gosling! Need I say more! lol.

I really want to see it too and hope to get around to seeing in after everyone has gone back to work & school, maybe next week.  Someone mentioned about how people should've have went to jail, I think some did but not enough.  It's sad, it really is. 


ONE guy went to jail...a little fish in the big pond.

Who played Maurice Greenberg (AIG)?  'Cause they could get the part playing Charlie Watts (Rolling Stones drummer), too!

very disappointed in this movie. slow moving story that could have easily been a 1 hr. documentary on PBS or Dateline.  waste of a lot of star talent.  and the scandal of the 2008 mortgage crisis and recession hard to re-live
