It's a constant battle between greed and fear and the morality of it all. The only problem I had was that it seemed obvious that while trying to keep this movie under 2 hours (which it is exactly) sceens got edited out. And instead of one grand ending, which would have made this film epic, they instead decided to split it into two shorter endings. Neither one of them alone makes complete sense or gives you that feeling of closure. But this is definetly one for the home collection and worth seeing many times. I rated this 5 stars only to bring the average up. (It deserves 4 stars at minimum) Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I really enjoyed Boiler Room. If for nothing else, for it's authenticity based on real life
"boiler firms" similar to this. The acting is great, and very well done. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Its loosely based on Wall Street. After seeing wall street (which I also own as a part of my collection), this movie seems to fall flat.
Overall a average movie worth seeing just once. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

It really outlines the pitfalls of the stock market and high-pressure salesmen. It overall outlines how some people put greed, selfishness, and moneymaking above ethics. Like I said, it was a good film and I'm glad I watched it, but be prepared for several moments of disgust with certain professions and industries. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
