Inside Job is a fascinating story of corrupt power brokers conniving their way into immense wealth, with devastating consequences for the world. Charles H. Ferguson's probing documentary investigates the systemic fraud and mismanagement that led to the late-‘00s financial crisis with the white-knuckle intensity of a crime thriller. Just as importantly, the film's five-part structure clearly maps out the cause and effects of the crisis, making us understand both how it happened and what the consequences are.
