Dumb Money é o derradeiro conto de David vs. Golias, inspirado na louca história verídica ocorrida durante a pandemia na qual pequenos investidores derrotaram os grandes fundos de investimento, no fenómeno que ficou conhecido como “meme stocks”, com enfoque nos acontecimentos em torno das ações da GameStop (sim, a loja de videojogos de centro comercial). No início de 2021, Keith Gill, um célebre youtuber conhecido como “Roaring Kitty”, que numa abordagem humorística cobria os mercados de ações e criptomoedas, sugeriu num dos seus vídeos que pequenos investidores se juntassem a ele na defesa das ações da GameStop contra os fundos de investimento que estavam a forçar as vendas a descoberto, o que iria levar a empresa ao encerramento.

The surprise of the year and quite possibly the biggest surprise I have ever seen in the cinema?!? Dumb Money is a film with almost zero promotion of not only itself, but of the event that shook America at the time. I hadn't registered it here and had no idea about it until now, as it was hidden in the background of the covid pandemic. It about a case where a small youtuber decided to ruin a Wall Street billionaire and bet against the so-called shorting, which is investing Wall Street money on the chances that a small company will go bankrupt within moments. But the youtuber decided to oppose it, it went viral, and gradually so many ordinary people invested in the stock of that failing company that its value artificially rose to hundreds of millions, and the moneyed realized that they stood to lose. An unbelievable story full of excellent facts and in terms of reality, I think it is excellent information, presented in a comedic way and with a build-up that evoked one emotion after another. The suspense, the nervousness and the desire for further developments kept me on my toes the whole time and when I add to that a fantastic performance by Paul Dano, whom I haven't seen on screen since his chilling role in Prisoners, I simply have an unbeatable film, by the end of which I was inwardly screaming with euphoria and wanting to find out everything about this case on the web. The acting is top notch, the filmmaking is equally so, the main character's final speech to the court was disarming, and time and time again we witness incredible corruption by billionaires and also that when the “little guys” get together, anything goes. I am impressed and for me this is a must see film that will not only arouse the your enthusiasm but also your desire to know more - and if a film can do that, it has won. PS. Erik Meldik on screen is epic!! PSS. I appreciate that even I, as a complete layman, was able to navigate a film full of stocks and stock market concepts, kudos to the filmmakers for that.

Another gripping and suspenseful true story based on real events that grabs you by the balls and doesn't let go. I'd easily classify it as the little sibling of this year's Air and Tetris, it's a David and Goliath battle where a group of amateur investors bet on Gamestop not to go bankrupt and in doing so, tear up Wall Street, shake up the world and make history thanks to one man who started it all. The likeable Paul Dano gives a great performance and Seth Rogen, who plays the arrogant money man, is a delight. Even for someone not familiar with the stock market and shares, the film is presented in a simple way, so that even an ignorant viewer can find their way around. Pete Davidson takes care of the humor and the overall tone of the film is very feel good. Once things get going, there's a nice stressful build-up where things really start to get tense and the emotions work, and it goes on like this until the finale, which includes my favourite lawsuit. Dumb Money serves up its story with tremendous style and fun that just about anyone can enjoy. 8/10.

This film is a wild, true story of a modern-day mastermind who capitalized on the absurd yet clever investment in GameStop stock. It’s a thematically rich tale that might leave the older generation scratching their heads, while resonating with younger audiences only if they have some economic know-how. In short, it's a niche film with highly specific dialogue and a unique narrative flow. Typical of films with Seth Rogen, it's definitely not for everyone.
