Movie about a crooked real estate investor, "99 Homes"
I just watched this movie last night. It is available through Redbox. It was actually enjoyable. Michael Shannon's performance as the crooked investor/broker was great with some great dialogue throughout. He made some great points about not getting emotionally attached to real estate. Shannon's character was the villian, but something about him made you like him anyways.
Definitely worth watching. It was nice to see a movie with real estate investing even though it portrayed him in a negative light. I heard it is based off a true story.
Anyone else watch this movie? If so please share your opinion!

In a real life situation, I don't think people are thrown out on the streets like that unless it's a couple breaking up. The saddest scene for me was with the elderly gentleman, who was alone and afraid.
Although the movie depicts investors in a negative light I liked it okay. It was good acting and it kept me pinned to the screen until the end.
Good points about not being emotional about real estate.
