The stories of this dying breed are fascinating. Go to Full Review

2/4
This relatively short doc is more than halfway over before it gets around to addressing its stated theme: how computer trading has thinned out the crowd of sharp-elbowed traders by some 90 percent since 1997. Go to Full Review

3/5
The film isn't pretty -- even the talking-head footage looks a bit hurried -- but neither is the milieu or the era it documents. Go to Full Review

Not exactly stock market math for dummies, this horror doc hybrid is nevertheless candid camera capitalism in the raw, penetrating that secretive trader thug life steeped in money lust, booze, designer cigars, drugs, and high end sex on demand. Go to Full Review

david f 06/23/2014 Very interesting examination of the decline of floor trading in Chicago, it features a lot of interviews about the good old days and some bracing accounts of how people are coping with the precipitous decline in the need for human intermediaries with the rise of computer trading. See more 04/12/2012 A bunch of douchebags from Chicago lose their jobs because of computers. See more 05/09/2010 A highly entertaining movie. I thought it would be mostly about the nuts and bolts of the industry but it's about people. Some winners. Some losers. Some completely crazy! I loved it! See more Read all reviews
