Excellent, gripping coverage of the lead-up to the 2008 financial crash, and the people who both saw it coming and ultimately dealt with their roles and their conscience. Christian Bale is especially effective as brilliant, stubborn forecaster (with apparently some degree of Aspberger's/autism) who slogs through the actual tranches of toxic mortgages and discovers a ticking time bomb. On-target cultural depictions of Vegas and Miami and the privileged world of finance.
