Dumb Money Review: Star-Studded Film Is An Exhilarating Ride Down Memory Lane

The year 2020 is infamously known as the year that changed all our lives for good. Whether it was due to losing a friend or loved one or being locked up in the house for months, most of us agree that it’s the year we’re happy to forget. For Keith Gill, better known as “Roaring Kitty,” his is a different story. In 2020, Gill began to publicly advocate for GameStop stock through a series of videos and on Reddit. Little did he know his efforts would lead to one of the greatest short squeezes in the history of the stock market. It’s no surprise then that his story would be adapted into a film only a few years later. Directed by Craig Gillespie, Dumb Money is a crowd-pleasing story with great performances and a script that keeps it simple.
