The word count is too much, to write a film review?

Lots of good acting. Christian Bale once again transformed himself. Similar style to The Big Short, which can be thought of as "explainer movies": lots of voice over, lots of information being shoved down the audience's throat, while the director still manages to make it entertaining. What I don't feel comfortable about this movie though, is that this movie doesn't leave much space for the watcher to think, because the director has a very strong point of view about the subject matter, and he is presenting it in a matter-of-fact fashion. It doesn't matter if I share his point of view; it just doesn't make it an engaging movie.

    There is no surprise when there is no big short, and even the laughing point is tired. Adam McKay don't go into the madness anymore, he will look forward to Anchorman's third installment just like Sister Egg looks forward to Fast and Furious

    It can be said that it is a kind of image totalitarianism, and it is especially dangerous when it is used in political themes. Unlike the "popular science" of the previous work, the discussion and ridicule of this film are all tortures imposed on others. You are attached.
