Movie Review: Assault On Wall Street

Jim (Domnic Purcell) is an honest security truck driver, making ends meet for himself and his beautiful wife Rosie (Erin Karpluk), who is just recovering from an illness. However, their lives are shattered when Rosie's health insurance company stops covering her expenses, and the economic crisis on Wall Street claims all of Jim's savings. Penniless and helpless, abused and exploited by the lawyers and the brokers, Jim flips the last switch when his pretty wife slashes her wrists in one desperate attempt to help him recover.

That's when all hell breaks lose on Wall Street.

The build up to the crises is amazingly executed, you can't help but feel really sad for the couple, and you root for Jim when he unleashes his fury.

And long after the movie is over, you will keep asking yourself.. who, really, are the true criminals out there?
