A downward spiral of a story, and absolutely not a feel good movie. I did not fully understand the technicality of the trades, the frauds and all the financial jargon, but you really do not need to in order to feel the stressful situation Nick Leeson was trapped in.

Ewan McGregor is a talented actor and a very good choice for this role. He carries much of the film simply through his presence and skill.

If you are into trading and financial market movies this could be something for you. There is also quite a bit of drama, which might be the main appeal for some viewers. Personally I am not into any of that, but I was still entertained, mostly because of the talent of Ewan McGregor.
