Review of The Big Short (2015) by Brandon S — 07 Oct 2016
If anyone told me five years ago that Adam McKay would make a better film about Wall Street than the great Martin Scorsese, I'd tell them they're crazy. However, here we are.
Simply put, THE BIG SHORT is one of the finest comedies ever made, and a superior film to THE WOLF OF WALL STREET (a different film that is great for different reasons, but one that is easily compared to the movie in question).
This is a masterpiece that is hefty in its ideas, but all of them are fleshed out with fine-pointed accuracy, and an incredible pension for juicy dialogue. Hats off to Adam McKay.
