Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Entertaining yet an educational movie.
Review: This movie is great, so long as you keep in mind the decade that it portrayed - the 80's. A decade of dog eat dog, greed, and get rich quick schemes. But we are now approaching a new era - the 21st Century or Y2K. Success is now defined not so much in monetary terms, but in personal victories, nurturing ethics and values and building relationships, not tearing them down. Readers are encouraged to check out a book review by this same author, on a book titled "Accelerated Learning for the 21st Century" by Colin Rose and Malcolm J.Nicholl.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Instant and Timeless Classic at the Same Time
Review: This movie was one reason I pursued a career in investment banking. It epitomizes the scandalous '80's insider trading scene and the greed that surrounds Wall Street in its quest for fame and fortune. Love it every time I see it, even though I know all the words.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You'll Have To Pardon Tom From NY...
Review: I have found, from time to time, that people like to write bogus reviews just to mess with the shopper. Rest assured that Michael Douglas earned his Oscar for his role as Gordon Gekko, and that the script will strike a chord with its audience. The cast is incredible, the story convincing, and the lesson timeless. To suggest for a moment this is the worst movie of the 80s shows true ignorance from tommy.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A Laugh Riot!!! The Most Hilarious Film of the 80s!!!!!
Review: Truly, one of the most hilarious movies ever made. The fact that it is intended to be a serious character study of greed's effects on a young man makes the hilarity even more intense. Oliver Stone is the Ed Wood of the 80s-90s!!! Watch Daryl Hannah pretend to know something about art!! Watch Charlie Sheen pretend to know something about acting!! Watch Martin Sheen realize what a bozo his son is!!! Watch Michael Douglas grease his hair, and win an Oscar for it!!! Listen to Oliver Stone's deathless dialogue!!! Not since Plan Nine from Outer Space has a script plumbed such inanities with such utter solemnity. A true classic, with Valley of the Dolls, and Showgirls.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the all time best
Review: Definitely one of the best movies of all time, especially if you have any interest in finance. The best thing about this movie is the myriad of amazing quotes that one can reuse in daily life for business and pleasure.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: An Awesome Piece of Film
Review: Wall Street is Oliver Stone excellence and Michael Douglas Magic. It portrays a young broker's(Charlie Sheen) journey to success and money by following in the footsteps of a relentlous tycoon(Michael Douglas). The film keeps you on your toes with constant action and first rate acting. An all around great film!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favourite movie
Review: I found this movie to be fantastic. I loved every minute of it. Most of this movie seemed to tie in with politics. Being a conservative, I found this very interesting. The plot of millionare Gordon Gekko followed along the ways life should be lived. Greed, power, and self-confidence.

Revenge was another big part in this movie. I liked how Charlie
Sheen played his role of Bud Fox. Towards the end the focus was to screw over Gekko and to have sweet revenge.

From this movie came my favourite quote of all:
"... greed, for the lack of a better word , is good. Greed is right, Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essense of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all its forms-greed for life, for money, knowledge has marked an upward surge of mankind..."

I'm not sure that my way is the way that Oliver Stone intended his movie to be interpereted. Oh well, I don't necessarilly care. Greed is Good!
