Trivia
According to the website Puck, the real Ken Griffin - portrayed in the film by Nick Offerman - "is locked in a nasty behind-the-scenes legal battle with Sony Pictures over his depiction in Dumb Money... Griffin has hired at least two separate law firms and sent multiple threatening letters... and he's consulting with crisis P.R. people to push back aggressively on his depiction by Offerman and the filmmaking team. Griffin claims the movie 'crosses the line into the knowingly false and defamatory portrayal of Ken and Citadel Securities.'" The Puck writer concluded, "Griffin seems unaware of the Streisand Effect, but perhaps his P.R. person can explain it to him."

Goofs
The nurse bought call options that were set to expire on January 16th. Since GME dropped after January 25, she would have made a large profit automatically and not lost her $560,000 paper profits.

A good movie but unsure as to why it's come out now

I went into this not knowing a massive amount about the GameStop stuff.

I think the film does well in showing the story but only from a high level. It doesn't go into too much detail of certain decisions or certain character arcs but I think it's good enough. However, I do think this film came out too soon considering the events only happened in 2020/21. Feel like if it came out a few years later it would have been better.

Saying all that, I think it was well acted, had a few funny moments and music choice was good.

It's not Oscar worthy by any means but it's still an enjoyable watch especially if you don't know much about the true story.
