Preview: Inside Job (2010)

Synopsis:

An examination of the financial crisis brought about by corporate greed and malfeasance.

• Poster: B-; C+

Review:

There isn't a lot to the poster. It's fairly interesting in its simplicity, but it doesn't really do a lot to explain the contents of the film visually, requiring people to read what it says, which might happen with a poster that looks somewhat like a piece of currency.

Fitting enough, this pile of money. It's not a great poster and the background is a bit too flooded with words, but it could have been worse.

• Trailer: B

Review:

It's an important story to tell that too few will watch due to a rather unimpressive trailer. You can use critics' notices all you want to say "this is a great movie", but when regular audiences don't listen as hard to critics as they should, it becomes rather pointless and you begin preaching to the converted.

Oscar Prospects:

There are many potential contenders this year and this could very easily be one of them.

Release Date:
