Review: Wall Street Money Never Sleeps

In Wall Street Money Never Sleeps, the global economy teeters on the brink of disaster.

A young Wall Street trader, Jake Moore (Shia LaBeouf), partners with disgraced former Wall Street corporate raider Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) on two missions - to alert the financial community to the coming doom and to find out who was responsible for the death of the Jake Moore's mentor - Louis Zabel.

After lots of conversations throughout practically the whole movie, the culprit was identified and everything is back to normal.

Overall, on a personal note, the movie was pretty boring. Conversations here and there, mainly discussions about shares and economics. Betrayals and revenges parts were expected as well, since it's about money.

With the inclusion of Shia LaBeouf (the star of action-packed Transformers and Eagle Eye), it's quite a surprise on why they gave him the main role. LaBeouf should be jumping, running and shouting instead of just talking.

The casts are pretty new to me, except Shia LaBeouf and Michael Douglas. Each brings certain personalities to the movie but it still feels boring.

Perhaps only the Economics personnel would enjoy it.

Noobie Rating: 4/10 (Boring)
