Steve Rosenbush of Portfolio.com covers the Best Business Movies of 2010 as the year comes to a close. It's getting toward the end of the short day here on the East Coast so I figured everyone needs something fun and mindless to page through.
Steve's view of The Social Network, An Inconvenient Tax, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, Inside Job and Casino Jack among others is a fine way to do that.
Some of their efforts failed miserably. The Cartel, a look at the education business and the charter schools in New Jersey, was panned upon release. And some of their efforts produced middling success. You will doubtless learn a lot from the documentary An Inconvenient Tax, but it's not exactly a popcorn movie. Freakonomics won muted approval. And then there's Hugh Hefner: Playboy, Activist, Rebel. It is bound to be entertaining look at one of the last century's most notable entrepreneurs, but it was dismissed as being a bit on the light side.
He notes that he's waiting for a financial fraud prison movie next year.
