Five stars? Yeah, five stars. Call me Standard & Poor's because I'm just tossing out AAA ratings.

A (frequently hilarious) crime movie where the American economy is the corpse, the entire financial system is the culprit, and the detectives all have bets on the body dropping.

But for the bearish take, you can hear Josh try to rain on my Adam McKay party on Filmspotting #566.

i liked so much of what this film is about, and so little of how it's about it.

I've watched this film seven times in the last two weeks.

i wonder if margot robbie's back hurts from carrying this entire movie

men's lives are so boring

we're all such fucking fools.

am i supposed to understand what these rich white men are going on about because i don't ?? nice cast tho great cast

Yes it is a complex movie but if you understand some of the background, history and basic economic concepts, you will enjoy it a lot more

i still dont get it

I think this might be my favorite movie of all time. Michael Lewis is my favorite writer, and the book of The Big Short is almost as good as Liar's Poker. But it's really the direction of Adam McKay that made this film special. Yes, the stars are all great, but it is really the cast of supporting characters that make this film amazing, both the people playing themselves (Anthony Bourdain, Margot Robbie, Selena Gomez) and the smaller roles where actors give amazing performances in sometimes as little as one scene (Finn Wittrock, John Magaro, Max Greenfield, Byron Mann, Jeremy Strong).

There is so much more to the story than what we get to see in the film, but McKay did a great job deciding where to focus and how to keep the viewers attention.

Fuck bankers. Fuck the government.

Primeira metade do filme eu ria cada vez que alguém mencionava que o mercado imobiliário não ia quebrar

No final, fiquei de boca aberta

Uma masterpiece pós-moderna do nosso realismo capitalista

first movie i’ve seen in a theater since march 12th 2020..........

Brad Pitt wearing a mask on a plane is the only valiant or empathetic thing anyone in this movie did

Thinks it’s cleverer than it is, feels thin for a 2hr movie

This is my biggest head empty moment to date.

The pace of this film is too fast they tried to combat that with the info segments but I still couldn't keep up the whole way through. You cannot be tired and watch this film

started recently investing myself so had to see it again.
