Review of 99 Homes

99 Homes (2014)
7/10
Reflecting the truth but strong ending might be inquired
3 December 2015
The story has good momentum carrying through the whole movie. I was glued to the screen to the end. However, I feel its ending seemed not reach what it intended to.

The stories of 2008 housing crisis somewhat were all too generic. Nevertheless, this one is not about losing homes but on the opposite by taking advantages of the already corrupted system. It's a surprise that audiences might never see it coming. The preludes had some unforeseeable impediments in places which kept me suspended. It's a movie without dull moments which indeed was needed for its contents . The director did a good job to grab audiences' easily wandering attentions. However, the ending somehow fell short.

If you like to see some tense scripts without too much drama, this one would be a good choice.
