商海通牒

2008年经济危机爆发时，华尔街一家投资银行的分析师皮特·苏利文（扎克瑞·昆图 Zachary Quinto 饰）发现公司的财产评估有着巨大的漏洞，即将导致银行的破产。公司高层连夜开会希望挽救公司。富有经验的股票经纪人山姆·罗吉斯（凯文·史派西 Kevin Spacey 饰）、证券经纪人贾德·科恩（西蒙·贝克 Simon Baker 饰）、金融危机分析师萨拉·罗伯特森（黛米·摩尔 Demi Moore 饰）、老总约翰·图尔德（杰瑞米·艾恩斯 Jeremy Irons 饰）都来到了会议现场。会议决定，银行要以极低的价格抛售债权和股票。但此一举虽能使银行能得到暂时的安稳，但却会引发一系列连锁反应.......A respected financial company is downsizing and one of the victims is the risk management division head, who was working on a major analysis just when he was let go. His protégé completes the study late into the night and then frantically calls his colleagues in about the company's financial disaster he has discovered. What follows is a long night of panicked double checking and double dealing as the senior management prepare to do whatever it takes to mitigate the debacle to come even as the handful of conscientious comrades find themselves dragged along into the unethical abyss.
