Thursday Movie Picks: Financial World


The Other Guys
Funnier than I thought it was going to be mostly because of Mark Wahlberg who needs to do more comedy (not more Daddy's Home crap though). Hot head detective Hoitz is paired with mild mannered Detective Gamble (a below average performance from Will Ferrell) are odd pair who end up taking on a case that leads to a conspiracy after checking up on a lapsed permit.

Working Girl
I love this film. I didn't know how much I loved this until I saw it on the big screen on International Women's Day this year. This film fits into the theme as Tess works as a stockbroker's secretary then for a financial executive. She also knows what she's talking about when it comes to finances and gets to do her triumphant elevator pitch to a client. 

Money Monster
George Clooney is financial expert/TV personality who advises people what to do with their money. But when some advice leads to many people losing money, one of these guys hijacks the live show, making Clooney's character wear an explosive jacket as the intruder demands answers. A conspiracy thriller about what big companies do to screw over 'the little guy'. It was ok but the massive twists and turns this film took was a bit far fetched.
