Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room: A documentary that takes an inside look at the sham we now know as Enron. The movie is made up mostly of actual footage from hearings, board meeting, and interviews of all the real people involved. The film makers do a good job of explaining all the dealings and all the business (smoke & mirrors) that took place in the Enron scandal. The film supplies some humor as we look back and see what a joke the whole thing was, but I could have used more. Without enough humor it came off as more a special investigation than a motion picture. Granted it is a documentary, but I felt the entertainment value was not that high. Still I felt it was a good watch as I really did not know many details about the subject matter. The more interested you are in the Enron scandal the more you will enjoy.
