Pretty Good

Went to see the movie on Friday night and I must give credit where it's due, the movie is actually pretty good. As an investor in stocks, and a pretty good investor in stocks (no I'm not a trader, I'm a long-term buy-and-hold investor who traders on CNBC and Bloomberg keep on saying are a group using an obsolete method) I do believe that people are going to have to see the movie 2 or 3 times in order to have a deep understanding of exactly what was going on. The characters in the movie used a lot of Wall Street language that your normal, everyday American won't understand, but the movie really struck at the heart of just how dirty the game is on Wall Street. The game is dirty, it's legal and unfortunately it'll never change. The best part though was to see a snake like Gordon Gekko redeem himself so I really enjoyed seeing a shark learn that destroying people's lives isn't the divine way to be.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Very creative

I must give credit, it was a very creative and well written film. It started out confusing and tedious to watch but as the movie progressed Christopher Nolan did an excellent job of helping you to better sort the important pieces of the story together which drew more and more of your interest and I'll even go so far as to say more and more of your emotions into the movie. The movie progressed gradually all the way to the end where it had a major climax that kept you on the edge of your seat. Lots of movies aim to do that but very few are successful at pulling it off. Don't start smelling yourself Mr. Nolan. A James Cameron only comes about once in a generation. 99% of the writers and directors out there can't do it like him and for the ones that do they're only able to do it once, maybe twice in their entire career if they're blessed. Congratulations on you doing it "this time" though. Bravo.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
