Equity Reviews
Equity is a fine example of how important issues are best framed in the most personal ways possible.
The film spends too much time unfurling its central plot, and gives short shrift to its most compelling moments, which arrive when the audience is given the opportunity to understand the women who carry that plot forward.
Although suffering from moments of unintentional camp thanks to some dramatic bits of dialogue, Entity manages to accomplish a lot with very little.
The filmmakers overplay their hand with a cast befitting a cruise ship vacation, unfortunately without any clear sense of where the boat is heading, or how to disembark before final credits roll.
In Equity it's never clear who will come out on top, and the resolution is more true-to-life than we're used to.
I couldn't help but suspect that Menon and Fox must have felt this was their one chance to surface every issue they could think of relating to being a woman on Wall Street (or just in general), and for me, it took away from the rest of the film.
Equity is not a perfect film, but it does use its story to explore a number of issues facing women in this competitive industry.
Three of its four main characters are women, but director Meera Menon and screenwriter Amy Fox do not portray them merely as men in pencil skirts and pants suits.
It's a refreshing spin that may not always hit the mark, but is effective enough to be worth a look.
It's not always great or pretty, but Equity packs a socially conscious punch.
The film is not fancy and its pace is prosaic, but it manages to get us right to the heart of American greed. You see it for what it is and the director, Meera Menon, leaves you there with no mercy.
It's extremely refreshing to see a movie about women and power where the power the women have doesn't come from their sexuality.
What makes Equity particularly interesting - and probably broadens its appeal - is the fact that it's less a women's movie than a movie whose main characters happen to be women.
Like "The Big Short," an investigation into Wall Street corruption.
Equity is a film by women, about women -- lesbian and straight -- and starring women. Take note.
With Equity, director Meera Menon asserts that our conception of ambitious women is too limited. We're not all leaning in for the same reasons.
The performances are good; the story is smart - though admittedly a bit convoluted for those of us who struggle with Wall Street jargon.
Depictions like in Equity, refusing to conform to stereotypes or caricatures, are the depictions we need in today's society.
Equity is a bizarre movie that manages the near-impossible feat of making a financial drama from an entirely female point of view without being in the slightest bit feminist.
Unlike The Big Short, it's not so much the system that's busted here but the people, women and men. The ending is perfect, and all too true.
