Interweaving three separate and distinct stories into a larger narrative is not an easy thing to do. As one of Adam McKay's first "serious movies", this does a great job of explaining one of the worst financial times in the US and the world and is really almost the apex of all the movies we've talked about this month.

A ton of breaking the fourth wall, actors explaining to the audience various topics. You have cameos from people like Margot…

Everybody is so self-interested, with no idea of the commons and it is all presented in such a way that gives you a fourth wall breaking of explanation but also doesn't forget to be an entertaining…

Just consistently infuriating. Brilliant in the way you laugh at it for the first half and then hate yourself for laughing by the end.
