Title: Greater Than the Sum of its Parts
Review: Okay, so maybe it really deserves 3 and 1/2 stars. As someone who went to college in the 1980s and did the New York corporate ladder thing, though, this film, for some reason, captures those times better than any I've seen. The nervous tics, the lack of trust, the yearning for intimacy, overall cluelessness, even the earnest act of pretending not to take any of it too seriously, all very authentic. Is it a put on? Yeah, but so were the 80s. So don't rent "Wall Street" or any of the other films of this genre which take themselves way too seriously. Fox and Slater deliver the goods, though you might forget what film you were watching two hours later.
Is the review positive or negative?
