The dramatic possibilities of the material are weak at best, and its satirical underpinnings are nowhere to be found.

Alan J. Pakula's Rollover is a moody, evocative, wispy thriller that makes some intriguing moves before dissolving like a wet tissue in irresolution.

...the movie boasts a predominantly impenetrable narrative that’s focused on the banking-heavy exploits (and conversations) of its various characters...

Rated: 2/4

The movie, once viewed, may seem farfetched, but then so was everything from sliced bread to men in space until it actually came to be.

Rated: 2.5/4

Perhaps I might have liked it if I knew what it was all about.

Movie is compelling, and not too far fetched, Good performances, lots of financial jargon and procedures, Nice nostalgia for old school computers, printers, and that hundreds of millions of dollars at the time being an astronomical figure, Kudos to the filmmakers for the sobering ending.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Made me thinking about the money or love. Being rich or being true to yourself. Does it have any possibility to combine them?

Interestingly, Kris Kristofferson was not the worst thing about this movie. It should have been better. Pakula loses all the things that made his paranoid trilogy so great. Mood, score, energy...

The most erotic thing in the world is the money made from doing deadly business Jane Fonda and Kris Kristofferson A financial troubleshooter Hubbell Smith meets ex-movie star Texas oiler Lee Winters The price of oil is skyrocketing in Saudi Arabia so Lee is looking to settle negotiations overseas but it almost seems impossible Hubbell is investigating the liquidity of his new bank; the both of them get caught up in a global economic conspiracy when Lee's petrochemical chairman husband is murdered As they both dig for answers they start to fall in love but their motives might pull them apart There's a lot of business talk, money jargon, and international politics going on This is more for the seasoned crowd I didn't find it that thrilling either Mediocre at best
