Charlie Sheen plays an opportunistic and hungry young Wall Street stock broker. He gets the attention of Michael Douglas with an insider trading tip that makes him a lot of money. They team up and illegally make some money until Douglas double crosses him on a deal to buy out the airport where his father works.
This movie was okay. I’m not interested in the stock market. I don’t understand how it works and I don’t really care. It’s basically just gambling and I don’t gamble. I found the movie to be drenched in yuppie bullshit. I hate yuppies. This movie didn’t parody them like the great “American Psycho,” it somewhat glorified them in the melodramatic way that “Cocktail” glorified being a bartender.
6/10
