This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Jim, an average New Yorker, lives with a sick but loving wife. Suddenly, everything changes when the economy crashes and causes him to lose everything. Filled with anger and rage, Jim goes to seek revenge for the life taken from him. Bailout: The Age of Greed or also known as Assault on Wall Street suffers from way too slow pacing but also Uwe Boll being a really awful director. The actors do try their best but not their best enough and the film also tries to get political at times which makes things even worse unfortunately cause it could be really good. (5/10)

One of the most amateurish and talentless movies I've ever seen. Why it's so bad:1. It's painfully predictable. 2. It's bewilderingly slow. 3. The actors' play is under any criticism. 4. The cult kid from Judgment Day is a fat guy with no presence. 5. Question to the director: How can you possibly sympathise with characters so dumb as not to get the most basic of concepts in funds investment, namely that you can end up with no money, no matter what your salesman tells you? 6. Following from the above, it makes no sense that the main character had been so complacent and oblivious as to make an investment, which if it turns sour will make his life a living nightmare, but subsequently becomes a genius master mind who investigates and foresees the moves of his victims with envious composure and intelligence. 7. Absolutely nonsensical behaviour on part of the main character in the final scenes – goes on a killing spree without any mercy, obviously having completely lost it, but along the way he spares random people – What?!!What's good about it: 1. You can see Dominic Purcell's pores in ultra HD.Grade: Another movie that spoiled Terminator 2 for me! Fu** you!

The reviews that call this the best have to be from people with an emotional short circuit in their make up or a stake in this movie. The acting, the story and the pacing are all so predictable as to be outrageously insulting. The overwhelming pile up of the bad things that happen to the lead character could have led to a great cathartic ending if there were a point to any of it. When I watch an action/revenge movie such as this I enter into an unspoken agreement with the director and writer that is something like "you keep me reasonably hypnotized and in the moment of your story and I'll suspend belief and turn off the judging part of my brain". The acting, writing and directing are so bad that I never got to turn the judge-ey part of my brain off. "Bad stuff happened" is in no way a justification for the unbridled and completely amoral killing of total innocents. This movie has no moral center. It's just disgraceful. The blood thirsty climactic violence should be focused tightly on executing (pun intended) said death, mayhem, and cataclysm on the BAD GUYS, not on an office full of men and women that are just doing their 9 to 5 thing. I am in no way an apologist for the scum sucking leeches that came out of the financial crisis with their fortunes not only fully intact, but much larger than before by a few orders of magnitude, all at the expense of the rest of us. However, the fact that there are people out there that think this movie shows a righteous everyman giving it to the man - instead of an unhinged, murderous, slug with no conscience wreaking senseless havoc - scares me. He has clearly gone mad. No, I take that back. There is no attempt to show him "snapping" and losing it. He is shown as an intensely mean and calculating monster. No amount of "YEAH! GIVE IT TO 'EM!!" blood lust excuses what he's done. He needs to be put down, not signed up for a sequel.Again, no moral center, no redeeming value.

I'm all up for action, quite the Arnold Schwarzenegger fan to be honest, but this film seems to actively encourage terrorism as a positive. Perhaps I'm missing the point of this movie, but I was quite disturbed when the hero (who has been hard done by) starts shooting random innocents because he has a grudge against people wearing suits. I get that he feels he's been ripped off, but to start throwing grenades into offices full of accountants and lawyers and calling himself a 'soldier of the people' is disgusting. Most of those people were probably paid reasonable wages for skilled jobs and had families. Essentially, brands anyone better paid than skilled labour as evil, and justifies killing them indiscriminately.Other than that, not clever, not well acted, poorly written, I wish I'd never seen this film. Ironic that by the film's misguided moral code, and that I feel ripped off by watching it, I should feel completely justified in assaulting everyone mentioned in the credits.I would not recommend this film to be seen by anyone, ever.
