Synopsis:

From IMDb: “Dumb Money is the ultimate David vs. Goliath tale, based on the insane true story of everyday people who flipped the script on Wall Street and got rich by turning GameStop (yes, the mall videogame store) into the world’s hottest company.”

Poster Rating: C+ / C / C

Review: (#1) Whatever creative energy this design has is minimized by its empty backdrop and lack of alternative details. (#2) The vacant space at the top, while intended to highlight the names of the actors, deemphasizes them in a way that could have been better handled by the actors being on display in larger images.

(#3) Doubling and tripling down on the cheap-looking style only makes the film feel like a waste of effort with a bulky, blocky aesthetic.

Trailer Rating: B-

Review: There are far too many films about the dramatic origins of various things. This one has a little more appeal than those as it’s not really about a product and how it came to the U.S. market, but how the little people stuck it to the rich and that has a certain appeal. That said, this trailer doesn’t have a lot of compelling elements and gives a lot of the plot away without need. Sure, it’s based on a true story, but where there’s a lack of tension, there’s a lack of interest.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
