    β˜… 6/10

    For those of us who aren't victims to the horrid financial hellscape depicted in 'Buffaloed', there is the occasional broken fourth wall, which seems to be the done thing these days thanks to films like 'The Wolf Of Wall Street' and 'The Big Short' - luckily for us, these breaks are short and punchy yet still left me thinking I need a degree in finance. Even luckier still is that that story is so plucky and manic, so even fiscal dumb-dumbs like me can still get an enjoyable stretch outta this one. - Jess Fenton Read Jess' full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-buffaloed-financial-horrors-solved-by-sass-gamesmanship-and-zoey-deutch
