Inside Job Inside Job was released into movie theaters on October the 8th, 2010. Directed by Charles Ferguson, the film stars the voice of Matt Damon as the narrator, and is distributed by Sony Pictures Classics. The DVD will be released on March 8th, 2011, and made available at DVD retailers across the nation. The plot of the film presents a worldwide economic breakdown, in which millions upon millions of people are left unemployed and homeless. This breakdown results in a projected loss of $20 trillion worth of resources, leaving the face of the global financial market looking pretty grim. Sound familiar? It's a documentary, featuring real interviews and information. Inside Job works to find the source of this meltdown, tracing the stories of those involved back to the beginning. The director, Ferguson, spoke with journalists, politicians, and other professionals before composing this story, which he presents in an organized and cohesive manner. Critics have been hailing the timing of Inside Job's release, with the subject matter being relevant to this current state of affairs. Ferguson is also being praised for the amount of work that he put in to this project. The research required to participate in the head-to-head interviews that he conducted would have required many sleepless nights, and the information that it unveils is equally impressive. Because of the knowledge that Ferguson had about the subject material, he was able to steer the conversation without being sidetracked by the normal political strategies. What makes stories like the one presented in Inside Job so unique is its conspiratorial nature. This documentary is really a work of journalism, uncovering the scheming and deceit that went into the recent economic crash. It shocks audiences with its thoroughness in presenting a clear and agreeable series of events, leading to an ultimate results. This movie highlights the corruption involved on Wall Street and in major corporations that handle a large amount of the world's money. This film definitely leaves the audience asking questions and wondering about the future. It appears the goal of the film is to put a spotlight on this corruption (the drugs, the parties, the prostitution) in order to inform the public to make informed decisions. With this information available to the public, Ferguson is looking to inspire change in the way that certain things are controlled in modern society. The subject matter is relevant, and the material well presented, in the upcoming DVD release of Inside Job.
