Thanks.
It's more of politics sha.
Adding.....

Nah, it's nothing to do with politics. It's very similar to Wolf of Wall street in that both deal with the human impulse to always want more than the other guy. Watch it, it's interesting.

One Must Fall- Horror

I don't know who sent me message.

Nasty, bloody, gory...Unfortunately I was eating eba and egusi when I began watching the movie. You can guess what happened to the meal

The movie makes an attempt at humour despite the graphic nature of its content and succeeds. It is actually quite funny despite the scenes of steaming human intestines lying carelessly around and mangled corpses.

James vs his future self .

Because I am very satisfied with The Wolf of Wall Street
I have therefore declared this weekend The Stockbrokers' Weekend
I will be downloading movies based on the stock market to binge on.

1. Wall street: money never sleeps
2. Margin call
3. The big short
4. Boiler room
5. Money monster
6. Trading places (for some serious laughs)

feel free to add to my list.

Margin Call - 7/10
The corporate world is a crazy jungle.
One minute you are the toast of the town, and next minute you are out, ostracised, and promptly forgotten.
But the house always wins.
No apologies to all the poor bastards out there hoping to cash in on the next best stock.

This movie is a good depiction of the blurred lines these sharks navigate daily.
And the humongous paychecks they receive for their efforts.

But money is never enough.........

Boiler Room - 7/10
Ben Affleck and Vin Diesel looking so boyish
As much as this story is about stockbrokers and their market,
my major take away is the relationship between our lead actor and his father.

No price for being a parent, but please understand your children.
So many 'soft' kids nowadays.
Imagine a man blaming the father for his own dysfunctional behavior because of a spanking he received at age 10.

God no go shame us.....
