I thought it was fine. I liked it more than Revenant and Room, but it comes short after Wolf and Inside Job.

I genuinely found it fun and entertaining and didactic in its approach of the 2006 crisis. Sure, it's a tad long and akward in its tone(s), but it remained fascinating enough to keep me thrilled all the way through.
And I have to say that I found it to be actually better than The Wolf of Wall Street, which felt over-bloated to death to me (especially the lest third).
