Another mediocre by the numbers documentary

The method of story telling in this film picks up all the stale tropes of modern documentaries. It is boring because the film just takes too long to actually go anywhere and the main characters are not interesting (Besides Deep F Value, that guy is a legend). I followed this entire story in real time on the Reddit WSB subreddit and I can't understand how this film failed to reflect how exciting this was at the time.

Two other huge things that tanked this for me:

1. I am so tired of stock footage being used in documentaries (e.g., when the narrator says welder and it cuts to a stock video of a welder or when it cuts to a Simpsons clip for no reason). It is lazy editing and adds nothing to the film.

2. This has to be the worst soundtrack for a film I have ever heard. IT NEVER STOPS PLAYING and is just the most basic score one could imagine. Let the characters talk, we don't need this bland garbage major key music playing for an hour and a half.

3/10, Strong recommendation to avoid.

Could have been good but the loud and constant soundtrack made it unwatchable for me....

I love the Gamestop story. Wall street getting the treatmnet it has dished out for decades and then crying about it like the GOP snowflakes they are.

Try to watch everything I can on this but this was, for me, unwatchable.

I guess someones girlfriend, boyfriend, or partner, thinks they are a musician so the soundtrack got left in.

It is so loud you struggle to hear the people tellng the story, such a struggle you just give up.

Seems to be the trend lately. Crap music soundtracks, that are louder than the interviewees.

Kenneth Cordele Griffin is a criminal and this movie proofs parts of it

This movie gives a brief understanding of the (first part!) of the Gamestop saga. It's a great starting point to educate people, and show how easy some wealthy Wallstreet investors can manipulate the whole financial system to their own benefit (Ken Griffin being the biggest among them),and how small retail investors om Reddit found out a leap in their cheating mechanisms.

However, unlike mainstream media like to make people believe this whole Gamestop saga is over, the situation hasn't changed. Shorts haven't covered and Ken Griffin isn't in jail. So the movie is a good start, but how the second part will play out is what I'm really excited for.
