In “Dumb Money,” directed by Craig Gillespie, the GameStop short squeeze of 2021 takes center stage, providing a thought-provoking glimpse into the financial market’s inequities while delivering an entertaining narrative. Unlike Adam McKay’s “The Big Short,” this film emphasizes storytelling over didacticism. It follows the journey of Keith Gill (Paul Dano), known as Roaring Kitty, whose Reddit-led short squeeze against GameStop disrupted the financial world. The narrative explores the aftermath, including RobinHood’s controversial trading halt and congressional investigations. With a wide canvas, the film features a diverse array of characters affected by the GameStop frenzy. The ensemble cast shines, even though the film occasionally lacks deeper insights into the event’s complexities. “Dumb Money” wisely avoids excessive critiques of capitalism, maintaining a fluid and engaging narrative that underscores the resilience of ordinary individuals challenging established financial norms.
