Margin Call Reviews
Film.com
Laremy Legel
Carefully crafted performances and taut pacing carry the day.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
Margin Call is the movie Oliver Stone tried to make with Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, only a lot less flashy and melodramatic -- and sharper, smarter and with a much stronger cast.
Detroit News
Tom Long
That Chandor manages to find the blood in each character is accomplishment enough; that he manages to make his drama both relevant and timeless portends a bright future indeed.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
A terrific piece of entertainment.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
With a cast as stellar as this, even the most banal striations of greed and fiscal amorality become readily evident.

Leonard Maltin
Margin Call manages to put a human face on the current economic crisis-but I wish it was as good as its trailer, which is forceful, well-edited, and dramatically scored...
Vox
Alissa Wilkinson
Positively devastating.
Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
Topical drama about the financial crisis lacks the visceral punch to grab an audience.
Variety
Justin Chang
A methodical, coolly absorbing boardroom thriller.
New Yorker
David Denby
Margin Call is one of the strongest American films of the year and easily the best Wall Street movie ever made.
What the Flick?!
Alonso Duralde
Some of the dialogue's a little too on the nose, but it's a really compelling story.
Vox
Dylan Matthews
Everyone thinks this movie is a fairly routine, not particularly notable drama...my love for Margin Call boils down to it being the one film that, more than any other, seems to understand the modern workplace.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
It's all fairly entertaining but also confusing for anybody who doesn't get the Wall Street lingo.
Slate
Dana Stevens
This may be the first post-2008 feature film to dramatize the crisis itself, rather than using it as a backdrop for an outraged harangue against the banks.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
The real strength of '[Chandor's] debut feature is how persuasively it depicts the fishbowl world of high finance, whose executives seem incapable of seeing past their towering salaries and privileged lives.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
Writer-director J.C. Chandor then plunges us into a dark night of quietly nasty reckoning as it becomes clear to the firm's honchos that the calamitous risk assessments one of their own was working on might well be true.
The Atlantic
Christopher Orr
Chandor's film is not a tale of the plots and counterplots of conniving bankers. It is a disaster movie, in which even the Masters of the Universe are running for their lives.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
A smart, harrowing and mordant drama set inside a fictional Wall Street firm at the trip-wire moment just before the 2008 financial collapse.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Though fictionalized and understated, "Margin Call'' effectively voices the same outrage that the Occupy Wall Street movement is so loudly proclaiming.
