Essay on movie

Wall Street, staring Michael Douglas as Buddy Fox and Charlie Sheen as Gecko. The movie was very interesting, it was about the big times, big business, big success, and it revolves around the stock market. But this isn’t your ordinary business, this movie is about insider trading, when Buddy Fox agrees to work for Gecko and give him insider information, he gets more than he can handle. When Gecko corrupts his relationship with his father, he goes too far. Buddy Fox is in for the most dangerous ride of his life.

Gecko again buys lots of shares, at the right time, and sells them to make a big profit, and he gives some to Buddy. Gecko gets lots of brokers, just like Buddy, and he pays them to find insider information and give it to him so he can buy the right stock at the right time and sell it all to make a large profit.

Gecko is a very rich, greedy, bad, and snobby person, he has so much money and he gets it mostly from illegal insider trading. Gecko took Buddy’s advice and bought some stock off the market to make money, and made a heavy profit of millions, Gecko calls Buddy and gives him one million dollars as thanks for the help. The movie was very good and I taught me a lot about the stock market and the seriousness of insider trading. crash and its relationship with today’s market, Gecko was impressed. Gecko were very good and convincing actors, also all though this story was very though out, it’s not true, its morals are wrong and its description of today’s business and the stock market aren’t true. Gecko decides to meet up with Buddy again and make a deal with him, he wants Buddy to get him insider information and Gecko will reward Buddy with lots of money. But that all changed when Buddy’s father entered the picture.

In conclusion, the movie was really unfair, and doesn’t relate to today’s real business ethics. Although it may have been interesting and a well plotted story, that’s all it is, just a story, today’s stock market economy is heavily watched for insider trading, and no one dares to try it. Buddy’s father works for a plane making company, this company and its owners, including Buddy’s dad, came for a meeting in Buddy’s new condominium, to talk about a new company plan.
