 Rating:  - Prophetic Thriller!!!One of the few entries in a genre that could be called "Financial Thriller" is an exciting, thought-provoking film that has more to do with 2008 than with 1981. Generally panned after its release, "Rollover" is a film of unusual delights. Underneath a rather dense layer of financial jargon (that might be taken apart by some of your more knowledgeable capitalists) lie some intriguing ideas and fine characterization.

Good solid performances by both, but it is a tad difficult to believe Fonda is from Arkansas and Kristopherson from south Texas is a sophisticated, debonair banker. As a mystery, it keeps you guessing. Rating:  - A Cautionary TaleWhile I can certainly argue about the cast, the plotline (given its Hollywood source) is plausible and frightening. It isn't about the Saudi's out to destroy the world or greedy bankers. It is a story about what might happen if the U.S. owed a large part of their debt to overseas investors and those investors panicked. Swap Asians for Arabs and cheap goods for oil and you are all set. Almost half of all U.S. debt is owned by foreign investors now, including many that are not friendly ... Read More |
