given who was involved.

It was no "Wag the Dog".

The ultimate point of it was slammed home hard enough though.

There's no end to the greedy, shady, relentlessly fucked up things people will do for money.

And that's just the LEGAL stuff!

Look at those who don't like it and their commonality. So sad it's basic good vs evil. I'm glad I have 20-30 years left and no kids.

  fed up with it and went to bed after 30 minutes and she ADORES Streep and Oldham.
  
  I think they are both great actors.
  
  The film was done in a too fractured, smart-ass way that hampered the pace.
  
  And I LIKE Steven Soderbergh films usually.
  
  If the whole point of the film was that last five minutes, make a fucking video, put it on YouTube and be done with it.
  
  It seemed a ham fisted farce posing as art.
  
  Let's keep "commonality" out of this.

    I was fine with it all. Certainly unique. I didn't get it right away but knew I would eventually during not after the film.

      I was fine with it as well. I certainly now know more about the Panama Papers than I did previously. If the point of the film was to inform, caution and entertain I think that it succeeded very well. I'll likely watch it again.
