- Set in the high-stakes world of the financial industry, Margin Call is a thriller entangling the key players at an investment firm during one perilous 24-hour period in the early stages of the 2008 financial crisis. When entry-level analyst Peter Sullivan (Zachary Quinto) unlocks information that could prove to be the downfall of the firm, a roller-coaster ride ensues as decisions both financial and moral catapult the lives of all involved to the brink of disaster.
- This was one hell of a cast for a limited release/simultaneous medium release (the movie hit theaters/dvd/home cable at the same time). Every time a new actor would come in, I was like whaaaaaaaaaat? The movie takes place overnight in some kind of an analytical firm with a bunch of people talking about what to do about this major issue that was found. They all talk around what the thing actually is. Honestly, the movie is a whole lot of nothing but talking. Normally that would annoy the hell out of me but with this cast, I was intrigued enough to keep watching.
- I would lukewarmly reccommend people checking this out. It's not a must see and it's a whole lot of talky talky. The star power does make it watchable though.
