Review of Margin Call (2011) by John T — 22 Sep 2013
MARGIN CALL - 8 out of 10 There has been much said about the fanatical crash and there have been some superb documentary films explaining what went wrong and why but this is the first fictional film that explores the impact it had at the very top of one major fanatical institution and highly enjoyable it is too.
Margin Call revolves around a day in a company that finds out that it is about to crash. It shows the way these ruthless companies treat their staff and how the people at the very top seem to get away with murder while they play with imaginary Dollars and millions of descent peoples lives.
I can't even begin to explain what really happened with the financial crash and i'm not sure many bankers can but it doesn't really matter when watching Margin Call. All you need to know is that it happened and that there are massive reverberations that come from it.
This film has a great cast - Kevin Spacey , Paul Bettany and Jeremy Irons are just a few and they do a great job. They are totally believable and considering the tiny budget of the film ( 2 Million Pounds), they totally believe in the script.
Well worth watching.
