Review of Margin Call (2011) by Cabrita — 28 Jan 2012

This film is so painfully dull. It does not fail because it's story but instead because of it's horrible choice of style and terribly slow moving plot. The film attempts to build tension throughout the film to lead up to it's climax.

However the climax is well done but the viewer feels nothing because at that point of the film they don't care what happens. The film try's to go into what's right and wrong among many other themes but ultimately all of them go nowhere with the last scene of the film being spacey burrying his dead dog.

I either could not figure out the significance in this scene or like most bad movies there was no significance. Definitely the most overated film I have ever seen.
