Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (PG-13, Drama) C+

Jake Moore (Shia LaBeouf) is a young stockbroker whose world falls apart when the stock market crashes. He also happens to be dating Winnie Gekko (Carey Mulligan) the daughter of Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) who has served his time in jail for insider trading and has recently published a book. His daughter doesn’t want to talk to him but Jake Moore is interested in his advice regarding some business he wants to undertake. Winnie warns Jake that he’ll only hurt then in the end. Unfortunately there isn’t enough of Gordon Gekko in this film; it’s too much about Jake Moore. Shia LaBeouf wasn’t convincing as a successful Wall Street executive. There are also too many special effects shots and split screens that just distract from the story.
