“Assault On Wall Street” (**1/2 out of four) was an affecting revenge melodrama set during the recession about a family man (Dominic Purcell) whose life becomes unraveled when the economy crashes and he loses his job and he loses his home and his wife subsequently dies causing him to become unhinged and take revenge on the Wall Street brokers whom he believed caused the crash! Chilling story with contemporary and moralistic overtones is audience manipulation to the nth degree. Not so much an action thriller as a humanistic melodrama until the end which becomes a bloodbath showdown; imperfect but made worthwhile by Purcell’s unusually strong and heartfelt performance. Either way, this is easily the best movie from megaschlock director Uwe Boll.
