There’s so much male energy coursing through JC Chandor’s promising financial crisis thriller Margin Call that by the end of it you’d be clamouring for an oestrogen bath, if such a thing were to exist. Drawing on the dialogue-laden energy of Boiler Room and Glengarry Glen Ross Authentic Nate Thurmond Jersey , the movie boasts a terrific performance by Kevin Spacey at the heart of an impressive ensemble.
I saw Margin Call Download at a packed press and industry screening on Friday but it will be more revealing to see what a “normal” audience makes of it all at Tuesday’s world premiere, because financial crisis stories aren’t exactly the kind of thing the paying public is going to run to see at the end of the week. Remember that spate of war movies a few years back with titles like In the Valley of Elah, Rendition and The Messenger? They were all fine work but the subject matter made people shy away. It’s a challenge the movie’s new owners Roadside Attractions and Lionsgate 鈥?who acquired the rights in Sundance on Sunday 鈥?will have to deal with here and hopefully they’ll succeed, because Margin Call is worth the effort.

The action takes place over the course of 24 hours at an investment bank Authentic Rick Barry Jersey , loosely modelled on Lehman Brothers, in the early stages of the crisis in 2008. Into the pit of the trading floor comes a unit of grim-faced female human resources executives to deliver the bad news of lay-offs. One staffer given his marching orders is a senior trader played by Stanley Tucci, an actor with a facility for toggling from effete to macho who displays a dash of both here. As he marches out under escort he hands a data stick to the young analyst Sullivan (Zachary Quinto from Heroes and Star Trek) and tells him to check out his unfinished project. “Be careful,” he mutters as the elevator doors banish him forever from the kingdom.

Sullivan is a rocket scientist who’s gone into finance because it pays better Authentic Mitch Richmond Jersey , which doesn’t bode well for the future of Nasa. Nonetheless he plugs in the stick and learns that his former colleague had worked out that the company was so over-leveraged with mortgage-backed securities that everything was about to come crashing down. Things start to escalate as more players get involved and Chandor takes us on a tour of the executive ladder. Sullivan’s boss is a nicely cynical Paul Bettany, who in turn reports to Spacey. We know Spacey’s essentially a good guy because he cries over his ailing dog at the start of the movie.

The ones above Spacey are even greater self-serving monsters and Simon Baker, Demi Moore and the slightly hammy overlord Jeremy Irons do a good job of portraying the moral ambivalence that must have permeated the upper echelons of the financial world at the time, and in all likelihood still does. Irons flies in by chopper to rally the troops and implement the survival plan Authentic Chris Mullin Jersey , leaving Spacey to mull over his position in a highly dubious scheme. Margin Call feels small and drags in places, but it looks good and there’s some great dialogue. With a little trim here and there it could emerge as a neat time capsule of an appalling episode of human behaviour.

Chandor has a sense of the absurd: in a scene where Baker discusses doomsday strategy in a lift with Demi Moore’s financial controller, they talk cryptically over the head of a sheepish cleaning woman, who trundles her trolley ahead of them in powerless rebuke.

This is a moderate and rather airless attack on the great social upheaval of recent times Authentic Latrell Sprewell Jersey , despite the universally fine performances. It cannot resist the seductive machismo of Boiler Room or Oliver Stone’s Wall Street; nor can it bring itself to unequivocally hammer its characters for their all-consuming commitment to the firm, even after they’ve been ousted. But it may be the closest American cinema will get.
