Who knew that a film concerning the 07/08 financial crisis could be so fun. This is a really great comedy drama containing very interesting characters brought to life by a great cast of actors, with stand out performances from Christian Bale and Steve Carell. The film also explains different concepts and terms to the audience in a usually fun way so that everyone can understand and be aware of them, It helps dissolve any confusion, making it fun and easy to digest without negating any of it's depth.
This is the first film that Adam Mckay has written/directed that isn't a comedy starring Will Ferrell, instead Mckay applies his talent to something greater showing how good he really is. Overall this film is just thoroughly entertaining film with a good amount of laughs and drama, and a strong thought provoking ending. Recommended. ****
