A young Wall Street trader (Shia LaBeouf) attempts to take down a merciless executive (Josh Brolin) who he blames for the death of his mentor (Frank Langella). He enlists the help of a disgraced Wall Street legend (Michael Douglas) in exchange for the man to be reunited with his estranged daughter (Carey Mulligan), who just happens to be the young trader's fiancee. A great cast and a talented director (Oliver Stone) create a rather boring, predictable film. Everything happens all too conveniently here. Kudos to Brolin who is pitch perfect as the greedy, vengeful millionaire with a heart of cold.
