Lunch is for wimps

• Michael Douglas as Gordon Gekko is this film.
• Charlie Sheen can't do serious (note: I haven't seen Platoon). He was swell in the Hot Shots movies, Spin City and is alright in Two and a Half Men. Had similar thoughts on Martin Sheen in Apocalypse Now... their faces are too soft for edgy roles. That said, Sheen senior was very solid here. I attribute that to his wrinkling and gruff old man voice.
• Daryl Hannah really is bad here. Well deserved winner of a Razzie for worst supporting actress.
• 350 > 300 pixels. Quite literally. Very literally.
• Very nice representation of the trading environment. Stone did his research and it paid off.
• Here's an interesting review. I agree on the idea that if Gekko was made the protagonist, the film would have been more awesome than what I saw.
• Back to Sheen, and continuing from the previous point, I wasn't sold by Bud Fox. His lack of emotion made him incredibly stiff (oh damn, sexual innuendo, please ignore). No wonder viewers ending up rooting for Gekko.
