Arbitrage Free movie streaming When we first meet New York hedge-fund magnate Robert Miller (Richard Gere) on the eve of his 60th birthday, he appears the very portrait of success in American business and family life. But behind the gilded walls of his mansion, Miller is in over his head, desperately trying to complete the sale of his trading empire to a major bank before the depths of his fraud are revealed. Struggling to conceal his duplicity from loyal wife Ellen (Susan Sarandon) and brilliant daughter and heir-apparent Brooke (Brit Marling), Miller's also balancing an affair with French art-dealer Julie Cote (Laetetia Casta). Just as he's about to unload his troubled empire, an unexpected bloody error forces him to juggle family, business, and crime with the aid of Jimmy Grant (Nate Parker), a face from Miller's past. -- (C) Official Site Release Date Arbitrage Sep 14, 2012 Limited | |

Review For Arbitrage |
There are holes in the plot, to be sure, but somehow we don't mind, because for all the unbearable tension of Jarecki's script, the central attraction here is the man in the arena. Bilge Ebiri-New York Magazine
A tight thriller that shows [its] handsome star in fine form as a morally bankrupt financier playing fast and loose with ethics and the law. Linda Barnard-Toronto Star
Gere gets the role he has been suiting up for ever since he was first designer-dressed for a murder rap in American Gigolo. Geoff Pevere-Globe and Mail
Part thriller, part character study, and it moves swiftly and confidently, with many details that feel exactly right. David Denby-New Yorker
This isn't very effective as a thriller, though it's a provocative fable about our ambivalent feelings toward financial elites. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader
The screenplay, written by first-time director Nicholas Jarecki, keeps us guessing, which is one of the best compliments one can pay to a movie of this sort. James Berardinelli-ReelViews
With his burrowed eyes, perfect hair and flawless wardrobe, Gere brims with a regal air and unsettling chilliness in his best role in more than a decade. Matthew Odam-Austin American-Statesman
Gere doesn't give Robert a remarkable amount of depth, but he certainly plays his damaged, agonized soul for all it's worth, even as the movie views him from a coolly removed distance. Mark Deming-TV Guide's Movie Guide
It's appropriate that Arbitrage gets its American release while our country is knee-deep in the fight over the fiscal cliff and the future of our financial institutions. Gabe Leibowitz-Film and Felt
Arbitrage avoids lazy, anti-corporate talking points to tell the thrilling story of a man drowning in his own greed. Christian Toto-Big Hollywood
Arbitrage is the story of one rich man's downward spiral where both sides lie to try to get what they want but both walk away empty handed. It all results in a standstill that is about as thrilling as a staring contest. Chris Sawin-Examiner.com
Arbitrage is a distinctive, well-acted edition to the subgenre of thriller devoted to the American white-collar scumbag. Chuck Bowen-Slant Magazine
Riveting from the first scene to the last, the movie works excellently as a showcase for Gere's talents. Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine
For all the satisfying ironies that are dished up... some of what we're served is hopelessly naive. MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
A crisp, procedural-type throwback to 1980s-style financial world thrillers about rich men behaving badly and skirting danger. Brent Simon-Shared Darkness
Richard Gere turns in a fine, nuanced performance of a very complicated character, Robert Miller, head of a hedge fund who made a bad financial bet on a Russian copper mine. Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope
Whether there is even the possibility of redemption at the end is part of what makes the film so gripping. James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk
If there were a movie about Mitt Romney, no one other than Richard Gere could play him. Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine
Inadvertently pandering on just about every level, except for the end credits, which are quite likely intended to rapidly vacate the theater for the next screening. Rob Humanick-Projection Booth
Not worth a trip to the theater, but it might be worth catching on TV some day you've got nothing better to do. Jeffrey Westhoff-Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)
Contains the kind of conventions that are fun to revisit with a skilled director and a game cast. Dominic Corry-Flicks.co.nz
A walk down the seamy side of Wall Street is pulled out of the shredder by Gere's performance, but only barely. Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics
A tense, well-acted debut from Nicholas Jarecki Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit
A well-cast Richard Gere is terrific as shady hedge-fund magnate Robert Miller. Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews
He simply evades and bargains. It's tough to say what audiences are supposed to do with that. Rob Boylan-Orlando Weekly
