- TriviaAccording to the website Puck, the real Ken Griffin - portrayed in the film by Nick Offerman - "is locked in a nasty behind-the-scenes legal battle with Sony Pictures over his depiction in Dumb Money... Griffin has hired at least two separate law firms and sent multiple threatening letters... and he's consulting with crisis P.R. people to push back aggressively on his depiction by Offerman and the filmmaking team. Griffin claims the movie 'crosses the line into the knowingly false and defamatory portrayal of Ken and Citadel Securities.'" The Puck writer concluded, "Griffin seems unaware of the Streisand Effect, but perhaps his P.R. person can explain it to him."

Featured review
The true story of The GameStop shares, how everyday people, detached from Wall Street turned the tables, and sent an Earthquake through the establishment.
If you recently watched Gran Turismo, it's a similar sort of film, the everyday people taking on the elite, the establishment, only this time, someone dares to take on The big money traders, the investors, those that play with money.
I wasn't sure initially, but it opens up and develops into a good film, it's a story of David Vs Goliath, a triumph over adversity....only the odds are naturally stacked in favour of The Financiers.
It was wonderful to get to see the real faces at the end, it brought home that this was actually based on a true story, crazy to believe it actually happened.
They did not hold back when it came to exposing the rotten system, the various bailouts that have happened several times over, with public money.
Paul Dano was great I thought here, a subtle, understated performance, Seth Rogan very good also, always good to see him in a serious role, that scene where he played out his speech, brilliant.
A surprisingly good movie.
7/10.
