作品紹介
「トラフィック(2000)」の脚本や「シリアナ」の監督・脚本で知られるS・ギャガンが、Ｍ・マコノヒーを主演に迎え、1990年代に起きた鉱山ビジネスを巡る金融詐欺事件「Bre-X事件」をモチーフに描くクライムサスペンス。破産寸前の採掘会社を立て直そうとする主人公と、資金難にあえぐ地質学者が、一発逆転を懸けて金鉱脈探しに挑む。
祖父の代から続く採掘会社ワショ―社を受け継いだケニー。だが株価は低迷、社は倒産寸前だった。そんなある日、彼はインドネシアで金鉱脈を発見する夢を見て、衝動的に現地へと飛ぶ。この地で巨大な銅鉱脈を掘り当てた実績を持つ地質学者アコスタと意気投合したケニーは、ジャングルの奥地で泥にまみれ、マラリアに苦しみながら試掘を続ける。苦難の末、ついに金鉱発見の知らせが届き、ワショー社の株価は急騰。ウォール街の巨大投資銀行から全世界の金山を牛耳ってきた黄金王までがケニーの成功を賞賛し、それを連日報じる全米のメディアは、彼を一躍スターへと押し上げた。そんな中、報じられたのは衝撃のニュースだった。170億ドルの金塊が一夜にして消えた―。「オレは何も知らない！」ケニーの主張も空しく、会社の株価は大暴落。混乱の中、メディアや株主からの追求は激しさを増し、そして遂にFBIの捜査が始まった。騙したのは、誰だ―。
なぜ170億ドルの金塊が、一晩で消えたのか──。

**Treasure hunt meets the wall street!**
Loosely based on the real. It's both a treasure hunt film, and a wall street tale. The great mix of two made it a fine film. Wall street based films always fascinates the grown-ups. So do this film. Matthew McConaughey playing in one of two main role, I thought it should have been called 'Fool's Gold 2'. You will know why I said that once you watch it, or maybe you know it already. But the end twist was something different, changed everything.
The man who inherited the family business of mining, is now in the crisis of losing everything. His final move is to join the hand with another man struggling as same as he is. They both pull off successfully the initial hiccup. And after a long struggle, seems they had hit a bullseye. The lives have changed forever or is it! Another trouble follows them, following, the story reaches the end with a twist.
At first, I thought it was like in the line of 'There Will Be Blood'. As the narration progresses, the gear changed between the two worlds. One being in the US and then in Indonesian Jungle. I thought the end should have been little more detail, but it still worked fine.An underrated film for sure. If it was a DiCaprio film, it would have been highly praised.
Actually, I liked it. Well written screenplay and performances. Matthew McConaughey was awesome. We talk about actor like Johnny Depp for playing roles in awesome costumes, but this guy turned the roles to reality. It's either 'Dallas Buyer's Club' or this or any others. He deserves well respect more the big names right now. Thousand times better than accidental actor, DiCaprio.
Edgar Ramirez was also good. Bryce Dallas Howard had an important role as well. Overall, This is one of the films not to miss from the 2016 calender. It could have been a box office bomb, but definitely will be recognised as the time pass by. I would surely suggest it to anybody.
_8/10_
