My Top 5 Entrepreneur Movies of All Times

Introduction

In the world of show business, it's often said that there are only seven basic plots. This is a lie. In fact, there are only two: (1) getting the reward and (2) getting the girl.

Still, as much as we might enjoy seeing some dude get his dream girl, we all know that more than anything else we want to see people get rich on screen. And now that summer blockbuster season is officially kicking off with this past weekend's release of Dr.Strange, what better time to rank the best movies about making bank? Sure, these aren't conventional picks for a 'best money movies' list because they don't have pirates or superheroes in them—but what they do have are smart takes on how capitalism works in 2022.
