Margin Call
2011
An all-star cast shines in this engrossing drama about a critical 24-hour period at a high-profile investment bank in the early days of the 2008 financial crisis, when young analyst Peter Sullivan (Zachary Quinto) uncovers information that could destroy the firm. When he alerts upper management to the precarious position of their risky investments, an emergency meeting is held to decide if they should alert clients or abscond with the profits.

Fantastic cast. Slower than Wall Street but far more interesting. This makes Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps look as realistic as unicorns. It also raises interesting questions without seeming fake or biased.
I liked the movie. It was interesting how the actions of one company can have a snowball effect that affects so many.
