"...ladies and gentleman, that greed -- for lack of a better word -- is good.
Greed is right.
Greed works.
Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
Greed, in all of its forms -- greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge -- has marked the upward surge of mankind."
Time to dust off an old classic! Well not so old. After all, the decade that WALL STREET famously and entertainingly captured with it's Reagan-era credo that "greed is good" is still so very much with us in so many ways. And of coarse it is because that is the American way.
This is one of Oliver Stone's best. Maybe his best. Results are so very mixed with him. As has been said countless times Michael Douglas is superb as one of cinema's all time great villains.

Even though this film is over 20 years old it is still relevant.
It really shows what drives the markets, even with today's stronger regulations.
Also, it is a great film, with real jeapody and tension.
It was a large influence on my own film, Capitalism - The Movie.

Brilliant time capsule of the 1980s and Wall Street hustlers in particular, anchored by a riveting performance by Michael Douglas as slash and burn big shot Gordon Gekko. Like Platoon the script is filled with over-the-top dialogue - "Who am I?" says Bud Fox (Gekko's protege played by Charlie Sheen) at one point. Nevertheless Stone captures the excess and furious pace of the period.
Aside from the film, what makes the 20th Anniversary Edition really worth the price of admission is the "extras":
- A deeply revealing and frank director's commentary from Stone following on from the excellent ones he has done for Platoon and Born on the Fourth of July.
- Two documentaries on the making of the film.
- Deleted scenes including optional commentary from Stone.

Wall Street is a classic film that still has many things to say to people today. Oddly, and unfortunately, it seems even more appropriate today than it did when it was released.

the movie shows them the situations and the financial world of a stock broker (Charlie Sheen) and its manager Gekko (Douglas)
