You cannot even call this thing
a movie - it is more like a screen capture. I watched this
ONLY because I have a huge crush on Renee Olstead, and she is totally
WASTED in this, never even appearing in more than a quarter of the screen at a time.
Go watch grass grow or paint dry instead, far more rewarding endeavors.
Call me crazy, but when I sit down to watch a MOVIE I want to see a full screen MOVIE, NOT a web browser.
If you want to screen the worst double bill of all time I would suggest combining your viewing of this with ESCAPE FROM TOMORROW. You'll be begging to escape from your theater.

Considering that they drag this out over nearly 3 full hours you would think you'd see it all. Not nearly enough is shown of how the Madoffs lived high on the hog for decades. And far too much time is spent leading up to the eventual crash and not enough is shown of the aftermath. If Madoff had only preyed upon the filthy rich he would have been far more forgivable, but he took down quite a few smaller folks in his fall from grace. To my way of thinking, Mark Madoff comes off as less redeemable than his father even though Mark supposedly had no knowledge of the ponzi scheme. What sort of son disowns his own father over a white collar crime?
The great irony in this tale is that ALL of Wall Street is one huge ponzi scheme. The eventual collapse will one day make Madoff a forgotten footnote. It's the age old truth folks - if an investment seems too good to be true, it is.
Overall an entertaining movie best viewed at double speed. It was nice to see Richard Dreyfus and Charles Grodin again.
