The film 'Dumb Money' is a feel-good biopic based on the true story of ordinary people who disrupted Wall Street by driving up the stock price of GameStop. The movie follows the journey of Keith Gill, played by Paul Dano, who invests his life savings in GameStop stock and shares his actions online.

Despite lacking suspense, the film highlights the lightheartedness and humor of the characters as they navigate their struggles. 'Dumb Money' offers an inspirational story of the little guy triumphing over powerful financial interests.
