The movie accurately depicts the intensity of the market and players during the boom boom .com era.
If you want to catch the technical jargon suggest you listen intently since Jesse Eisenberg talks a mile a second. The pauses in dialog and action really enhance the Asberger dimension to the film. Would have liked the movie to play out the IP rights dimension more since it is such a hot topic in technology innovation case law.
The actors were very good, even Justin Timberlake.
I wonder if the $100M ever got him the "friends" he never enjoyed...
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I thought there were copyright laws!
The premise of the film was lifted straight out of "Dances with Wolves". Same story, add-in 300 years and a dose of Halo and there it is. OK, we get it Hollywood, native Americans experienced genocide by Northern European immigrants settling the West.
The technical dimensions of the film - animation and graphics - were excellent.
This is hardly an epic film unless you believe 3 hours listening to a tired plot and predictable characters is epic. Perhaps the $500M to make the film could have been put to better use in the inner-city.
