It was reasonably good, the problem is the first part was kind of an eye opener to the public. These days kids trade stocks in their phone while in the shitter. How do you impress that people? WS is now mainstream.
I thought Part 2 was a "good" movie, certainly better than 95% of the cr@p that is put out today.. but it wasn't as good as the Original 1987 Wall Street.
In a way it was funny, but at the same time, when Gordon was being released from prison, the last time he had seen daylight was January 31st, 1993 and the next day he went to prison, his world was still being what he saw up till that point in the early 90s from being the king of trading from the 80s and he was probably in the middle of doing business on that phone that goes "thud" on the table when he was released so literally just think about the fact that when he looks at that phone, it's literally the last past reminder of the world he was used to and the world that he was king of, whether it was right or wrong, it was a cultural shock when he's outside of the prison and no one is there to greet him, not his wife, not any of his friends, no one he helped make rich off his illegal activities, no one. He was totally and completely alone. U can't help but feel sorry for someone like that because remember this too, even though he had started in the Wall Street business in 1969, and he became who he was by the early 90s, he wasn't like that when he first started. And yes I know it's just a movie, and it's a fictional character, but it's based on a lot of true incidents that happened for years and I'm sure that's still going on in Wall Street. I just love the Gordon Gekko character because it's not all just one side of it.
I went into a business degree thinking that I could be trained to do this work. But just getting through an undergraduate degree was near impossible for me. I just was not smart enough. Subjects like international markets 2 and 3 and managerial economics. There was no way. I firmly believe that if you can build a career in this world you must be pretty damn smart. What was it GG said when he first met Bud Fox? “Nice to meet you. I hope you’re intelligent.”
Everyone in this clip is so naive. They have no clue on how large investment firms are actually rigging the market along with banks with the support of elected officials.
Why can't there be a movie made with somebody doing it the right way, and the whole crew gets paid, does there always have to be a villan, taking peoples money is nothing to idolize

The lines they have Gekko were so fantastic.... "if he owned a funeral parlor...no one would die." 😂😂😂
Gordon Gecko is way better than most Wall Street investment bankers and hedge funds guys
I want to have off-shore accounts too...😂...sounds so cool!
Greatest movie ever!
One of the greatest movies out there. The part 2 was not that good.

Thud! "And one mobile phone" :) cracked me up when I first saw this.
It's a 70s 80s mobile phone. Might as well be a telephone
@@afrosamuraiwarrior Just remember we had to have ENIAC before you could have your little smartphone. It's all related.

A lot of it’s more complicated than it needs to be in order to make some people feel smart and to weed others out.
It's usually a combination of intelligence, savy and connections.
You are correct ....IQ abv 130 needed mostly to pass advanced designations to rise to meaningful levels
you must be smart in something else then
Xmas is over, Business is Business !
I say hes not a villain hes an investm banker
First one was a masterpiece... second one was... ok
3:56 - Guy talking is delusional. People get richer and richer doing exactly this. It's called insider trading.
Insider trading is illegal. Its not sustainable and any wealth amassed would only be temporary. The guy is right.
Douglas is not stiff enough to be a wallstreet bad guy. He is a terrible bad guy.
Greed is good....🤑

Could be ether. Go getter or sinple laid back. Ima take it slow
I know why.
Money Never Sleeps was done purely for THE MONEY. Waste of a movie...
It's a shame. It could've been so good. Even better than the first one if they focused on Gekko and his comeback instead of Shia LeBeouf.
He's do fake.
