Business Ethics

Nothing new, clever or interesting to watch, Starts well and then stays flat to the end.

Business Ethics is a smart, stylish dark comedy with a Faustian warning about the price of success. I'd heard from reviewers that it was boring, and I beg to differ; this is a very character-driven yet aesthetically enticing story reminiscent of the Enron scandal, bringing a lot of great talent to the table. It was nice to see a black actor in a leading role, and Larenz Tate gives it his all as the well-meaning but gradually more ruthless and callous Zachery. In pursuit of orchestrating the perfect Ponzi scheme, this character calls forth a ragtag team of deeply flawed, memorable side characters. Sarah Carter as the seemingly ditzy secretary who may be more clever than she lets on, Julian Richings as the kind-hearted but self-destructive drunk accountant, Lance Reddick as the near-omniscient voice of reason and truth... all in all, a stellar, wonderfully talented cast paired with a witty, powerful script makeS Business Ethics a strong and unforgettable story. As a student with a commerce background, I'd recommend this as a showing in any business or commercial law class.

Clever, charming and comical with a hint of dark comedy. The acting was superb. The storyline was excellent. There was a disconnect or not enough dialogue between the mother & main character. A few scenes seem to move forward without enough information. However, Larenz Tate delivers multifaceted performance and love the quality of the cinematography. Keep up the great work Tate Brothers! :)

I saw this film at the Newark Film fest in 2019 and thought it was great. A really funny 90s style dark comedy that you don't see very much these days. Kind of similar to Zucker bros style comedy, but a lot darker. Def recommend checking it out if you can find it.

Glued long enough to watch till the end. Interesting Dark Jokes and deep lines. But the ending of a movie is what gives it the 'good' rating.
