08 – The Big Short

Like I said, this list goes by UK release date, so if you’re from outside the UK you should not be shocked to find this here. This amazingly candid look at the causes of the 2008 financial crash is funny, poignant, dark and anger inducing in all the best ways. Often documentaries are better than any recreation of a true event can be. This movie decides to be both and succeeds.
