Product Description

Boiler Room (DVD)

Anyone who says that money is the root of all evil, doesn't have it. Welcome to the new American Dream. Eager to show his aloof father that he can succeed in life, an ambitious, intelligent college dropout takes a job at a small stock brokerage firm, where he meets with great success. But when he learns that the company is selling worthless securities to gullible buyers, he realizes the cost of his ambitions--and how deeply embroiled he has become in the scam.

Great movie, but maybe a tad unrealistic

Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2024

Verified Purchase

The music (hip hop) is great and the story is compelling. It's about a group of young stock market swindlers who thrive on the thrill of selling mostly wealthy people on their junk stocks. It's also about a strained father-son relationship.

I watched this when it first came out. I was a telemarketer at the time. I hate telemarketing now. But back then a lot of folks were doing. Good movie for a bit of nostalgia

GREAT CAST IN A THOUGHT PROVOKING STORY OF GREED AND FAMILY

Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2016

Verified Purchase

BOILER ROOM is a step back in time with the world was a different place. The economy was booming and the tragedy of 9/11 was yet to come. The time was ripe to make money and create a few scams along the way. A great cast heads a movie about greed, honesty and family relationships. A young Giovanni Ribisi and Vin Diesel that heads a cast that include Ben Affleck, Nia Long, Scott Caan and Ron Rifkin. Ribisi put his soul into the role of Seth Davis, an intelligent college dropout with a fractured relationship with his father, a respected judge.

It's not clear how he does this but Davis drops out of college without telling his parents and sets up a casino in his fancy apartment. His casino caters to rich college students and Davis has a financial windfall. Davis draws the attention of some questionable characters who connect him with brokerage firm JT Marlin. Soon Davis is a trainee as a stock broker and promised future earnings into the millions. Seems like a dream world but soon Davis begins to question the ethics and legitimacy of the JT Marlin. The company cold calls potential investors with promises of huge profits. It is hard to believe that so many people would fall for what could be a serious scam and risk their life's savings so readily. Yet, people do and Davis becomes the top broker in training.

The meat of this story is the moral dilemma Davis suffers when he begins to realize something is not adding up with JT Marlin. It seems like all he does is a way to gain acceptance from his distant father. Their relationship is never explored fully and it does bring up the question as to why the father is so distant. His attitude toward his son sets up Davis for failure.

It's an interesting study in relationships and moral values. The fun of this film is seeing young versions of some popular actors like Ribisi, Diesel and Affleck along with a few faces you will recognize from later movies and TV shows. BOILER ROOM is not without flaws. More character exposition could have helped flesh out the story and people's actions but still it is a riveting look back to another time.

The Boiler Room dvd has photo images of Vin Diesel, Giovanni Ribisi, and Nia Long on the front of the dvd cover. With Nicky Katt also listed to be in the movie. I admit that Boiler Room is another film that I heard about via an e-mail connected to the office of Jordan Belfort. Due to obvious and understandable legal reasons, it is mentioned during the play of the dvd that Boiler Room is fiction. This is because one can easily see the obvious parallels between Wolf of Wall Street and Boiler Room The character of Seth Davis (Ribisi) just wants to make his father proud when it comes to eking out a living for himself. Davis sees opportunity when he gets hired at a stock brokerage firm, part of the appeal being is that he is a newcomer to working in the field. Seth Davis thrives in his job and even falls in love with a fellow coworker named Abbia (Nia Long). There are obvious references to the Glengarry Ross movie in Boiler room with referencing both the movie and the Always Be Closing phrase. There is even a cultural nod to the Wall Street movie (the character of Seth Davis is seen watching the Wall Street movie with his coworkers). I just seen his name on the back of the dvd cover, yet I admit that I did not know that Ben Affleck was in the Boiler Room film until I saw him in scenes involved with doing the hiring at the stock brokerage firm. Anyhow, things seem to be going along well for Davis until he convinces a purchasing manager at a Gourmet Foods Company to be a client. To exacerbate the situation, the gourmet foods purchasing manager is not just responsible for himself, but he is shown to be both a father and husband who is trying to place a large down payment on a home with his wife (therefore the stakes are even higher than if it was just him and his wife). The following are some of the features attributed to the Boiler Room dvd-the chance to play the movie with filmmaker commentary, isolated score with composer commentary by The Angel, deleted scenes/alternate ending, theatrical trailer, cast and crew filmographies. There are also dvd rom features of a script to screen that allows a read of the screenplay and original theatrical web site on the dvd and listed to be more.

Great story about redemption between fathers and sons.

Reviewed in Canada on December 6, 2022

The story comes straight out of all the Wall Street 'adventures' and disasters. It both involves and entertains you; a great lesson for anyone who thinks crooks are cool. Belongs right up there with The Wolf of Wall Street and will remain in my collection of 'business' dramas.

A film about men wanting to make loads and loads of money

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 27, 2015

Verified Purchase

Giovanni Ribisi's Seth Davies moves effortlessly from illegal backroom 'casino' owner to successful cold calling amoral stockbroker in this no-nonsense exploration of unregulated capitalism in the 1990s. There are many notable performances in the testosterone filled environment of J.T. Marlin, a 'chop stock' brokerage firm who makes its profit through duping its investors to purchase worthless stocks of expired or fake companies, The narrative is brisk with a pulsating hip-hop soundtrack and the dialogue suitably scabrous and scathing. Although it doesn't quite reach the heights of Glengarry Glen Ross or Wall Street, it nevertheless is a valuable addition to the genre and brazenly pays homage to both films directly. Ben Affleck successfully mirrors Alec Baldwin when he gives a couple of belting inspirational speeches to his greedy acolytes while Gordon Gekko is mentioned on more than one occasion. I found this film through Amazon reviews and unhesitantly recommend it for at least one viewing.
