      Edward M "Unfortunately, this film suffers from glaring issues—poor research, bias, and unintelligent questioning. I spent more time cringing at the interviewer's queries than engaged in the content." Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/21/24 Full Review Shael A real slice of life with the tragic details of recession brought on by human decisions. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/26/23 Full Review Tony S A stunning expose of the corruption in the financial services industry, the federal government that is supposed to regulate them, and Ivy League universities that supply expertise and manpower to the federal agencies that regulate the financial services industry and who sit on the boards within that same industry. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/28/23 Full Review Moody C In the end, both parties are out to screw you as people with power and money naturally do throughout course of history Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/05/23 Full Review Felipe P at the end of the day, the poorest, as always, pay the most. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/23 Full Review Aldo G Start here if you want to learn how the global economy was brought to its knees. You'll find the usual culprits, but, like me, you might be surprised to learn how academia had a major role, too. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Keith Uhlich Time Out It’s fun to watch the bastards squirm. Yet the film doesn’t follow through on the righteous indignation it stirs up. Rated: 3/5 Dec 18, 2022 Full Review Vadim Rizov Sight & Sound Inside Job is far more watchable than it should be. Mar 1, 2011 Full Review Philip French Guardian I've only scratched the surface of this intelligent, riveting and informative film, which I cannot commend too highly. Feb 22, 2011 Full Review Joanne Laurier World Socialist Web Site Inside Job by American documentarian Charles Ferguson (No End In Sight) is a valuable, detailed account of the global financial meltdown in September 2008. Mar 1, 2021 Full Review Rocco T. Thompson Screen Rant Pragmatic and infuriating, Inside Job shows how our financial system falls apart when the ruling class is allowed to steamroll over the little guy in the name of wealth and capital. Jun 22, 2020 Full Review Matthew Migliorini CineVue Inside Job dutifully details the weight of these crimes with an intelligent reserve. Rated: 4/5 Dec 14, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
