My opinion

Nice movie. I’m almost certain that there are a lot of people who would like to do the same thing with that bunch of bankers, lawyers and wall-street white-collar criminals. The movie is extremely topical, I think. The collapse of a person’s life because of the collapse of a capitalist system where there are others who enrich themselves on that financial battlefield. You would flip out as well.

I was pleasantly surprised by the end. Again a clever security man. Maybe it’s a bit too simplistic and the way he did it will probably never succeed in reality. But I turned a blind eye to that this time. The movie was well suited to fill up an evening.

My rating 6/10
