Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

After trawling through a splurge of "awful" "didn't finish it" "they ate my brain" reviews.. i was wondering if i wasn't "on a different moral compass" but possibly in a different mindset.. I thought (and this is why i bothered looking) somebody might have speculated on a little suggestion. Perhaps the film wasn't great so my thinking picked upon character representation.. wouldn't get to deep here.. but sometimes it seemed as though the reasons for these obscure character traits were on a deeper level with characters representing the government, federal reserve, the public... the choppy sea as the big scary world etcetera..... Might have made/maybe was a wonderful novel but the Hardyesque qualities have been lost in Hollywoods vision... (because that never happens)

The stock market has been hacked and is going to crash on Monday. Only one man in the world can fix it, Guy Clifton (Frank Grillo) Tony Clifton's illegitimate son. He assembles a crack team as we watch all the action and drama unfold as people plug wires into the back of a server and type into a keyboard. Whew! Just over whelming stuff. Oh wait! The daughter Creason (Anna Sophia Robb) seriously? Creason? has cancer and isn't responding to treatments. AND her boyfriend Ben (Ed Westwick) is one the programmers helping dad who operates "under a different moral compass." Dad has been arrested for hacking and gets immunity for doing this.The original title was "A Conspiracy on Jekyll Island" although I don't know if they were ever on the island, it wasn't in their filming locations. This film is for the conspiracy minded about stock market manipulation, corporate greed, insider this that and the other, and the evil Federal Reserve. All that good John Birch stuff that has suddenly gone mainstream. I am surprised they didn't work a dig in at the UN. However, if you are going to do a film such as this, you need a believable plot, decent actors, and maybe a shower scene. Factual films about the last crash were a lot better than this one about a fictional glitch in the stock market that caused an unreasonable panic.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity

This movie could have been very good but the presentation was too hectic; we kept getting random bits of several sub-plots in two-minute intervals, interspersed with flashbacks to fill in the story line. I think it would have been better had they spent the first section of the film giving the story of the guy who was going to prison for fraud; let the audience get to know him and build up some sympathy for him, or at least interest in the character. Then get into the current terrorist plot to crash the market; that way, when they call in the hired gun, we know about him and how he might be able to save the day.

I don't understand how they expect to make money of these kind of movies. Are these C Flicks a method to launder money?The movie tried to appear real slick but ends up delivering motion sickness inducing camera work. Headache inducing soundtrack and Corny Computer Hardware clichés. Last times like Schwab and Diebold...seriously? I'm trying to think of something positive and it's quite difficult.I kept hoping to hear the Purge Siren go off, and the main character to start killing everyone to end the movie quickly. It would have been a much more redeemable ending.
