Known as the money monster, money is like a monster, it is like the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden, tempting the greedy side and the evil side of human nature. This kind of greed evokes evil thoughts, such as the black-hearted boss who manipulates the stock price in the film. He could have become an excellent entrepreneur to create value for the society, but he chose to deceive the society and damage the interests of others to enrich his own pockets. In the end, the conspiracy was revealed. Clang to jail. This kind of greed also makes people who originally belonged to their own peaceful and peaceful lives lose their minds, such as the truck driver who kidnapped the host in the film. He could have been a good husband and a good father, but he was shot dead by the police for kidnapping and creating terrorist incidents on live TV, leaving him still in the womb without his father.
But in the film, we also saw the good side of human nature. The girlfriend of the black-hearted boss sticks to the principle, does not protect her boyfriend, and helps the society to expose his sins. The host, played by George Clooney, helps the truck driver who kidnapped him, uncovering who was behind the manipulation of the stock price. The photographers risked being killed by bombs at any time, recording the latest developments of news events in real time. It shows that although evil exists, the bright side of human nature such as justice and bravery is always invincible, and evil does not overpower the good.
The plot of the film is ups and downs, it is thought-provoking, and it is worth watching.

    The rhythm is okay, the lack of inner drama, the irony is also an old routine
