Michael Douglas (Gordon Gekko)
Shia LeBeouf (Jake Moore)
Josh Brolin (Bretton James)
Carey Mulligan (Winnie Gekko)
Eli Wallach (Jules Steanhardt)
Frank Langella (Louis Zabel)
Susan Sarandon (Jake's Mother)
Natalie Morales (Churchill Schwartz Trader)
and, yes, Charlie Sheen (Bud Fox)
Skip ahead 25 years. Gordon Gekko has served eight years in jail and has authored a book called "Is Greed Good". Winnie Gekko (Carey Mulligan) is now her 20's and is an editor at an online news magazine. Jake Moore (Shia LeBeouf), Winnie's boyfriend, is a manager at a hedge fund. And that's where it gets confusing. I like the original "Wall Street" more. In that one, there was one protagonist (Charlie Sheen as Bud Fox) and one villain (Michael Douglas as Gordon Gekko). In the new one, you need a scorecard to keep up with who's good and evil. Needless to say, I like the original. I would rate it 3 3/4 out of 5 stars. (I would rate the original at 5 out of 5 stars) The End. (2010 - PG-13)
