Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps (2010)

Posted on March 7, 2011 by laurarachel4

Rated PG-13 As sequels go this isn’t the worst nor is it the best. Michael Douglas is, of course, the perfect Gordon Gekko. The film seemed too flashy for what the story entailed. I thought the chemistry between Shia LaBeouf and … Continue reading →
