An all-female-led production with an astute take on the world of Wall Street.

The film spends too much time unfurling its central plot, and gives short shrift to its most compelling moments, which arrive when the audience is given the opportunity to understand the women who carry that plot forward.

Equity is a bizarre movie that manages the near-impossible feat of making a financial drama from an entirely female point of view without being in the slightest bit feminist.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 10, 2016

Unlike The Big Short, it's not so much the system that's busted here but the people, women and men. The ending is perfect, and all too true.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 30, 2016

[A] turgid, 온라인카지노추천 movie-standard financial thriller.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 4, 2016

Could give Kansas in August a run for corniness.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 1, 2016

A shrewd tale about women on Wall Street and the glass ceiling, corruption and back-stabbings they face from their male co-workers and one another.

| Original Score: B | Aug 26, 2016

"Equity" is that rare thing: a Wall Street-set movie that focuses on women. (It's also directed and written by women, also still rare.)

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 25, 2016

Narratively, some of the film's plotting is too predictable, yet the honesty of the situation rings true. Equity leaves telltale smudges on the glass ceiling as it peels back the transparency.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 18, 2016

An expertly crafted financial thriller.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 12, 2016

It's [an] admirable move, but not a successful one.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 12, 2016

A razor sharp financial thriller about people who are themselves razor sharp.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 11, 2016

The film is humanist rather than overtly feminist, since it shows the high personal cost of trading conscience for filthy lucre. But it's certainly novel to have a financial drama led by women.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 11, 2016

It's an exciting, smartly sexy, suspenseful little crime drama that evokes classic Hollywood film noir.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 11, 2016

"Equity" feels ham-handed and obvious, like a contrived attempt to make polemical points by couching them within schematic characters and plot points.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 11, 2016

It's a quieter, more nuanced peek behind the curtain of high finance.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 11, 2016

Much as the group might want this to be their spin on, say, the accessible juiciness of "Margin Call," they're unfortunately not that dramatically dexterous.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 11, 2016

It doesn't go for flashy drama, and the ending is more whimper than bang. But there's the sense here of something authentic, and unless you're already in the business, you'll probably learn something.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 10, 2016

Equity is an intelligent film for smart people, or at least those who aren't afraid of some finance wonk talk and terms like "end-to-end encryption."

While watching [Gunn] I thought once or twice that hers was a one-note performance. But by movie's end, I realized it was a symphony of invincibility and vulnerability.
