Billionaire Boys Club

This story tells two young men who enters the upper class world and become ultra rich through dubious means.

The story is mesmerising. It captivates me throughout, because of several reasons. On one hand, it offers a dream of upward social mobility, which is appealing to watch. On the other hand, it is only a matter of time when the whole house of cards collapses. The two lead actors are charming and are very likable. I enjoyed watching this film.

Story is based on true events. Characters are interesting but portrayed without much depth. Casting on the other hand: Emma plays another same character. Kevin carries the movie. Egerton show really great performance. Ansel could step up a bit but good acting.

Enjoyable one-time watch, for young people especially. It deals with important questions like how far do you bend your ethics to make a dollar?

There's also some good sales lessons from Kevin Spacey in this movie, i'll let you find those yourself. And Kevin's attachment to this movie really turned me on to it, he's still a great actor despite any allegations that are going on.

Recommended movie for a one-time viewing.

This movie doesn't take long to kick into gear and has a pretty fast pace. The acting is good and the music is retro pop giving you that late 80's early 90's fun disco vibe. But the movie is based on a true story and that adds to the storylines authenticity but young guys starting a investment firm and getting in over their heads is a story too commonly told. This story does however go further on the tragedy scale then other movies about broker's or investors but when you watch these films that cover this topic it's always like watching a slow train wreck and this feature is no different. I do think this movie has some entertainment value but just a little.

I give this film a fair rating which means it's something worth watching but only when you get some free time don't go cancelling any appointments this movie can wait.

Considering this film's runtime is around 100 minutes it felt more like 4 hours.

I struggled to find any of the characters engaging or likeable, and so didn't feel invested in the story.

After about an hour (or what felt like three), my attention had waivered to the point I was on my phone looking up the real-life story behind the film.

Maybe it's just not my type of movie, so give it a go yourself by all means. For me, though, this was instantly forgettable.
