Movie Reviews of Rollover
Movie Review: Prophetic Thriller!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the few entries in a genre that could be called "Financial Thriller" is an exciting, thought-provoking film that has more to do with 2008 than with 1981.
Generally panned after its release, "Rollover" is a film of unusual delights. Underneath a rather dense layer of financial jargon (that might be taken apart by some of your more knowledgeable capitalists) lie some intriguing ideas and fine characterization. The basic plot involves an actress-turned-business woman (Fonda) and a highly-skilled financial trouble-shooter (Kristofferson) who align themselves professionally and romantically. The paranoia and distrust central to the film not only infects their relationship but finds a larger manifestation in the precarious relationship between Saudi Oil and the world economy. Sound familiar?
Maybe 1981 found "Rollover" less than convincing. However, today, the realities of how large concentrations of corporate wealth threaten the fragile state of our global economy make this film indistinguishable from our nightly newscasts.
