The octogenarian Icahn anchors this deft pocket biography, with his appealing directness and dead-level stare, as he presides at the office and around the house. Go to Full Review Kyle Smith National Review 03/09/2022
As portrayed in an inspiring new HBO documentary, Icahn: The Restless Billionaire, the 85-year-old financier isn’t like Robin Hood. He’s far better. Go to Full Review John Serba Decider 02/23/2022
I know -- we’re all sick to DEATH of politics, but without such context, the documentary is an incomplete portrait of a man who, Klein insists, has had enough of an impact on Wall Street to deserve a feature-length documentary about him. Go to Full Review Lisa Laman The Spool 02/15/2022
A documentary too in love with its central subject to say anything interesting.  Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Michael W @mawilps 02/17/2024 This Wall Street documentary was really good. The entire crew did a fantastic job on making this documentary. This story about the famous financier Carl Icahn was inspirational and amazing. It's about making the right investments for the shareholders of a company rather than the company itself. If you haven't seen this documentary yet, check it out sometime. It's a must see and you might learn something as well.

He really is a fascinating guy who had a knack for finding undervalued companies and making billions off of them. This film does go through most of his hits, but doesn't spend enough time on the destruction he caused at TWA and all the layoffs that came to other companies due to his 'activism'. Guys like Ichan are a product of our capitalism system; both the good and bad parts. But, it is an interesting watch if you are interested in the stock market. See more 02/25/2022 Right on the money! In depth and right to the heart of the story. See more Read all reviews
