Corporate Takeovers and fun
Added 11/22/2009
I've always loved this movie. Gregory Peck is a sympathetic character who runs a factory that needs to be either updated or liquidated. Danny DeVito plays Larry the Liquidator who is prepared to do it. If you think takeovers are horrible be prepared to root for Peck. I personally think they helped improve the economy so I rooted for DeVito all the way. Regardless, it is a fun movie with some realistic settings and issues.

I teach Corporate Finance, and it is a better lesson than Wall Street - a lot funnier too!

This has been one of my favorite movies since the first time I saw it (a long time ago). It' a classic 80's movie and a little corny sometimes but one of Danny DeVito's best movies!

Entertaining and even educational

In general, I like most Danny DeVito films. He is a comic genius, but also manages to slip in some telling social commentary. This film is no exception. It has great one-liners, mixed with enough sound economics that Instructors at the college where I teach have students watch the film in business classes. You will be entertained and even learn something. What more could you ask?

I loved all this movie. I specially enjoyed Gregory Peck's and Danny DeVito's speeches to shareholders before voting. Great acting from DeVito...
