"Big Short" does not present all the content. The film focuses too much on the description of mortgage loans without fully showing the more complex economic factors that have spawned bubbles and exacerbated the crisis. The film blames the financial crisis on Wall Street’s greed, but ignores the less evil but more convincing reasons. The story contains a lot of boring financial principles, which is the reason why movies of this type have been ignored for a long time.
The film did not answer the bigger question, how did the subprime mortgage bubble come into being, and how did the belief that the subprime mortgage bubble never burst was formed. The answer lies in broader macroeconomic and social forces, but these factors are hardly mentioned in the movie.
"Big Short" gives full play to its professional expertise and integrates the origin, development and evolution of U.S. subprime mortgage bonds and their derivatives into interesting stories, including subprime secured debt warrants, mezzanine secured debt warrants, and credit The operation skills and methods of products such as default swaps are described in a succinct manner, depicting an industry and its various characters and stories in a panoramic manner, forming a chaotic trading network, and revealing the cause and truth of the crisis from one angle.
The financial comedy turns an information-intensive course into a post-modern farce. The film has a sense of anger that cannot be ignored, but the director tries to catch the audience’s attention as fast as possible, like It was jumping through the ring of fire on a motorcycle while reading Keynes.
