Reviews & comments

pressGo and see Greed for Coogan's chameleonic work at its heart. He truly is worth the price of your ticket.
The New York Times
pressLike "Casino," "The Big Short" and "The Laundromat," this movie has a strong pedagogic component, to lay bare the most rank excesses of contemporary capitalism. Here, as it happens, "Greed" is at its strongest.
Los Angeles Times
pressLet's just say the phrase "Eat the rich" takes on a whole new meaning here.
Variety
press[Coogan has] always been a quick wit, and his timing couldn't be better. So why does so much of "Greed" feel petty?
Little White Lies
pressMcCreadie learns the hard way that some things can't be bought; the catharsis of that particular lesson amounts to its own kind of entertainment, less outright uproarious than satisfying.
The Guardian
pressWinterbottom chucks everything up to and including the kitchen sink into this movie: sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
Hollywood Reporter
pressIt's a wobbly but amusing film that only really raises eyebrows at the end, when it briefly behaves like a cry for global economic justice.
