Story is based on the 2008 financial crisis. Storyline is good, actors were great. HOWEVER, I feel like Garfield wasn't the right role for this movie. I find him lack the emotions in his character. Throughout the entire movie, I find myself repeatly thinking that this role would been perfect for Tom cruise in his younger days. This character should be witty, smart, money and power hungry where Tom cruise would've nailed these personality traits. I think for someone to be able to play this role, they'd have to have some life experiences in order to bring out their character. This is where Garfield completely blew it. His character often seems lost in his own world. Just my two cents.
