There are holes in the plot, to be sure, but somehow we don't mind, because for all the unbearable tension of Jarecki's script, the central attraction here is the man in the arena.
Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine/Vulture

A tight thriller that shows [its] handsome star in fine form as a morally bankrupt financier playing fast and loose with ethics and the law.
Linda Barnard, Toronto Star

Gere gets the role he has been suiting up for ever since he was first designer-dressed for a murder rap in American Gigolo.
Geoff Pevere, Globe and Mail
Fresh
Part thriller, part character study, and it moves swiftly and confidently, with many details that feel exactly right.
David Denby, New Yorker

This isn't very effective as a thriller, though it's a provocative fable about our ambivalent feelings toward financial elites.
Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader
