While it is well made and has a great conflict at its disposal, its plot seems to go off on tangents and can't quite develop its characters as much as it would like. I would also like to add that I was more interested in this film when it focused on the start-up company's opening day, which happens late in the film. Narrative missteps like these may have weighed it down, but I still enjoyed this film in respect to much of the running time and the music, which I happened to love. I'll grant it a seal of acknowledgement. Expand

If you are a woman in a male dominated industry this movie is confirmation of what continues to exist. The ole boy network & the undermining of female colleagues, one can hope movies like this will eventually bring consciousness to the men &If you are a woman in a male dominated industry this movie is confirmation of what continues to exist. The ole boy network & the undermining of female colleagues, one can hope movies like this will eventually bring consciousness to the men & support among women in corporate America. This movie had women talking & men in disbelief. Unfortunately, I had to drive a distance to see this film & I live in Maryland where there are a lot of females in high ranking positions; disservice to the film. Just another reality, a female produced, directed & leading role film that Hollywood decided not to back. I think the movie could have ended better with some vindication verses the typical. Expand

A well written and taut script that delivers in telling the story of feminism and Wall Street. Entertaining.
