Review of Assault on Wall Street (2013) by Tashy497 — 27 May 2013
Good god man... it's an action/revenge movie. It's not supposed to get great scores... but if this is what you're looking for I give it a "9". Again, only if this is what you're looking for.
The build-up they give you for revenge fodder is fantastic... the main character is a badass and the underlying message is anti-capitalism and shows you just how powerless honest working people are. The great part about the main character are his responses in the movie, he's a simple honest working man and has the simplicity of Rambo.
If you're pissed off because the economy and politics this will help relax you. To be honest I'm not sure how they got away with doing this movie. I loved it, for what it was, not what it could be.
A few gripes that could have made it better:
- a little more dialogue with the main character (i.e. when he's getting the shaft from the lawyer).
- perhaps a bit more artistic license from the perspective of the main character and how he's feeling.
The speech by Mr. Corporate at the end was a shocker, again, how the hell did they get away with this. Surprised it wasn't banned.
