Movie Review: Margin Call

Genre: Drama

Director: J.C. Chandor

Stars: Zachary Quinto, Stanley Tucci, Kevin Spacey, Martin Baker

****

Members of the public who suffered great personal losses in the economic meltdown weren’t the only ones in pain.

There was a special place in office tower hell for fat cats behind the meltdown that included survivor guilt, fear, anxiety, moral compromise, and thoughts of suicide.

Chandor’s excruciating 24 hours with such a team is a smart and worthy ride.
