Reno on Equity

6/10 · Dec 24, 2016

The movie feels like an exclusive group, whether it’s for men or women—the work itself is carried out in a similar fashion. This financial drama, centered on female characters and directed by a woman, gives it a sense of empowerment. As this was my initial exposure to something quite like it, I believe it might be unique. It's not as poor as the reputation suggests; people who appreciate films dealing with finance such as 'Margin Call', 'The Big Short', or 'Glengarry Glen Ross' will likely find enjoyment here too. The film adheres closely to its title, so that’s what viewers should anticipate, though nothing significantly beyond that. There are surprising developments in the storytelling. Especially noteworthy are the characters—particularly the female ones. It explores themes of dedication and reliance among coworkers; regardless of your efforts, the company evaluates you based on outcomes. The rhythm might seem deliberate initially, but it improves as the film progresses. It shifts into a type of thriller and concludes with a somewhat drawn-out, yet ultimately satisfying resolution. Anna Gunn delivers a strong performance, and it appears we have another skilled woman director in Meera Menon. This film hasn't achieved the same level of recognition as other movies on similar subjects—namely, male-led Wall Street thrillers. Nevertheless, I found aspects to appreciate, and a follow-up installment wouldn’t be unwelcome given how the narrative concluded. Ultimately, this is geared towards a specific audience; those outside its scope may not find it entirely pleasing, which could affect their perception of its rating, even if the quality remains intact. _6/10_
