A true story and complex as most true stories go! It’s a cautionary tale about corporate abuse of investor faith. Matt Damon is extraordinary as the disturbed Mark Whitacre (bipolar / multiple dimensions); Melanie Lynskey is perfect as the calm, strong Ginger Whitacre. The movie destroys Mark Whitacre’s credibility and does little to replace any shred of the respectability and credibility that he has achieved since his release from prison. If you've read Rats in the Grain Against All Odds, or The Informant, you’ll understand this movie: it shows the former disturbed side of Mark Whitacre, the ineptitude of the FBI in detail and how it destroyed instead of supporting its informant.
