A fantastic insight to a evolutionary revolution. Albeit an illegal one. Drugs is old game, everyone has seen a thousand drug movies, Silk Road is a drug movie where the drugs aren't the point. The technology is. Even back as recent as 2011, where this story takes shape, technology and the internet were still an unknown entity to most, think about it, just how much did you really know?! Exactly, and that's the point of this movie.
The founder of Silk Road, made 1.2million Bitcoin in the first day of "public trading". That's worth a eye watering £48,671,764,992 ($66,327,120,000) in today's Bitcoin value. Yep, that's right. A. Day. In The first day! The future had truly changed when Silk Road went live, and this story is a great insight.
The main cast, Nick Robinson, Jason Clarke & Alexandra Shipp do a great job delivering this story, which, yes, is slow and wordy to start, but once you understand the 2 sides of the coin and the technology at play, it's a brilliantly clever and well delivered film
