when the corporate world meets the
camera it is sometimes a very very big
deal I’m starting a new company and the
fish will come with me
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
business movies so go to there for a
walk or go for this list the contenders
have to be movies that are centered on
the business world whether they feature
real estate moguls tech geniuses or
amoral day traders these are the movies
that show us the thrills and the
pitfalls of life in a suit they can be
fiction or nonfiction but documentaries
do not count they called in the New York
City police who carried him out chair
and all down to precinct headquarters
number 10
Jerry Maguire I’m the guy you don’t
usually see I’m the one behind the
scenes
I’m the sports agent I’m managing the
world’s top sports stars must be no easy
feat and when Jerry Maguire finds
himself with just one client it seems an
all but impossible task
show me Jerry be better yeah Maguire is
savvy though he’s smart and although he
doesn’t like to admit it sensitive I
love you you beat me
the journey he takes with star wide
receiver rod Tidwell is one that takes
them beyond the field of sports I mean
I’m feeling a little you know I mean I
don’t want to go I’m gonna hang out of
the place a lot oh we want to look
that’s like there that’s bullshit you
got to be fair to her Tom Cruise and
Cuba Gooding jr. shine in this sports
business crossover it is how the game is
played now I’m gonna go back to them and
say what please remove your dick from my
ass number nine pirates of Silicon
Valley era
of competition between us is over thank
you bill
thank you for standing with this a
biopic of perhaps the two most
influential businessmen of recent times
thank you god I know what it’s all about
you know what it’s about it’s about
power pirates of Silicon Valley portrays
the early days of Apple Steve Jobs and
Microsoft’s Bill Gates Apple’s new
computer Lisa we’re dead oh yeah I’ve
already seen one of these the graphics
in the operating system they have in
these they make this stuff for selling
IBM look about a decade out-of-date I
want it what do you mean you want it I
mean it’s apples we can’t just go and
steal it you’re not listening to me I
bought it it may be difficult to imagine
these men as younger normal people
students with friends and girlfriends
just like anybody else but this movie
really brings that all to life this
isn’t fun anymore
maybe fun is just fragments of existence
with better packaging it’s a long road
from amateur genius to global success
story and pirates is that road on film
creation is missing you want genius you
get madness two signs in the same coin
you knew that when I brought you in your
jungle number eight casino
the guys like me but Vegas washes away
your sins it’s like a morality car wash
it does for us what Lords does for
humpbacks and cripples Martin Scorsese
and Robert De Niro make a fine pair
don’t think they’ve given us some
classic films and this one’s no
exception
the mom always makes her a fine movie we
could have also included the Godfather
on this list particularly part two for
showing us the business end of the Mafia
but casino takes it with ironic
legitimacy the casino the cardinal rule
is to keep them playing and keep them
coming back
the longer they play or they lose and we
get it all De Niro is Sam Rothstein a
mafia associate sent to work in the
casinos of Las Vegas I just gotta tell
you it’s no joke guys
it’s no joke you gotta you got to keep a
low profile it’s not like back home
right off the bat they don’t like guys
like us and the sheriff’s a real cowboy
even the cop is aren’t afraid to bury
people on the desert here and what
follows is double-crossing ten times
over
a stark look at alternative business
before you knew it anybody know anything
wound up getting wet
number seven boiler room I read this
article a while back that said the
Microsoft employs more millionaires
secretaries than any other company in
the world
they took stock options over Christmas
bonuses it was a good move a story from
within the JT Marlin brokerage firm
boiler room is an ongoing moral
conundrum Chris I got arrested last
night what the FBI arrested me
the FBI why the could the FBI arrest you
Seth Davis is a college dropout with a
poor job so he gets a better job as a
broker but the stock market is far from
squeaky clean I was wondering do you
ever wonder how we make the riffs that
we do I mean how how is it that we make
rips that pay out more than any other
major firm good kid anyway
that’s wrong except that’s your old
question to be asking there’s pressure
all around him and the temperature is
rising
this movie is cold calling
claustrophobia is metal facts Daryl’s
been doing nothing but signing more
contracts Harry I’m tellin you it’s
looking like our next big one here
Davis’s is a physician many of us aim
for but his is a life that none of us
wants to lead stuff I need the money
back I’m sorry I can’t do Dave please
Seth I need the money back I have to go
hello hello how did I find business
conditions in Europe mr. bones with
great difficulty number six Citizen Kane
it’s a good show Tom said what it needs
is a name all we saw on that screen was
the Charles Foster Kane is dead I know
that I ready to pay it’s the film
everybody was talking about a turning
point in cinema and an enduring classic
and if it covered more of the business
end of things it’d be higher on our list
I’m Charles Foster Kane
I know cheap crooked politician Orson
Welles is the one-man band here writing
producing directing and starring in the
movie that confirmed him as one of
Hollywood’s favorite sons six years ago
I looked at the picture of the
world’s greatest newspaper men I felt
like a kid in front of a candy store
well tonight six years later I got my
candy all of it welcome gentlemen to The
Inquirer
it’s an exploration of media mogul
Charles Foster Kane ‘he’s life and an
investigation of his intriguing final
words
it’s a look at human principles regrets
memory and ultimate happiness

the employees of The Enquirer Bernstein

the fifth fantastic film on which
they’ve collaborated money doesn’t just

real-life businessman Jordan Belfort in
addition to Naomi and my two perfect
kids I own a mansion private jet six
cars three horses two vacation homes and
a hundred seventy foot yacht a raucous

hookers the blue chips top-of-the-line
model material they cost between three
and five hundred you had to wear condom
unless you gave them a hefty tip which
of course I always did this movie is
full frontal nudity it broke records for

exactly how the revolutionary website
came about from its humble and quite
sexist file-sharing beginnings to the
all-conquering pillar of the internet
