Review of The Big Short (2015) by Jeff N — 21 Nov 2016
Adam McKay, known for SNL and his partnership with Will Ferrell, finally applied his talents to a film about a very important subject, and did so with a unique twist that, thus far, has me hoping he gets an Oscar.
"The Big Short" is a phenomenal film about the biggest story of the last 10 years, the Mortgage-backed Securities industry that killed our economy. It's well-written, perfectly acted and directed in such a strange way that I'm shocked Hollywood let this movie get made.
Plan B, who produced it (Brad Pitt, Brad Grey and formerly Jennifer Aniston's company) continued their trend of successful films with a fantastic, groundbreaking take on how our economy got into this mess.
It is a must-see!
