Has Anyone Seen "Inside Job" Yet?
I was just reading a review of it and now I'm super-psyched to see it. It has received no publicity whatsoever, from what I can tell. It's a documentary examining the 2008 financial collapse narrated by Matt Damon. One thing I read about it that I'm interested in learning more about is the comparison the movie draws to the economy of Iceland. Apparently, Iceland had been the picture of economic stability for years, and then they privatized and deregulated all their banks and their economy was ruined within months. The reviews also say that the movie is extensively sourced and every fact cited in it can be backed up 100% by credible sources.

I was just wondering if anyone had seen this movie yet and if it's any good.

1. You might be interested in this.
The director has posted an article over at HuffPo.

The comments section includes some people's impressions of the film which all appear to be positive.
