    Plot Outline: A college dropout gets a job as a broker for a suburban investment firm, which puts him on the fast track to success, but the job might not be as legitimate as it sounds.
    Plot: A morally decent college dropout finds himself at conflict with his harsh federal judge father. He gets a job as a stock broker and gets on the fast track to success. Only things take a turn for the worst when he learns that his job isn't what's it cracked up to be.

    Movie Quotes: Man on phone: Take me off your list.
    Seth Davis: Fine, fine. I'm gonna take you off my list of successful people today.


    Crazy Credits: We know about 1 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
    At the start of the film, the New Line Cinema studio logo features the faces from various U.S. Dollar bills, and the studio fanfare music uses a hip-hop "scratch" sound effect.

    Goofs: We know about 10 goofs. Here comes one of them:
    Incorrectly regarded as goofs: After Seth and Chris have their argument in the stairwell right off of the boiler room, Seth goes down at least one flight of stairs on his way out. In the next scene he passes Abby in the receptionist area that is on the same floor as the boiler room - because he's been bumped upstairs to nicer offices.

    Trivia: There are 5 entries in the trivia list - like these:
    • Greg tells Chris to get his "One Race" hands off his money. Chris is played by Vin Diesel, who's production company is called One Race Productions.
    • In the scene where Chris (Vin Diesel) and Seth (Giovanni Ribissi) are waiting outside Greg's (Nicky Katte) house, we never see the car move or get turned on. Before they shot the scene Ben Affleck was sitting in the car, listening to music. He accidentally took the car keys home with him. They absolutely had to shoot the scene that night and couldn't find Ben. They shot the scene with the car where it is and lit up the house so there wouldn't be a reflection of the camera and crew.
    • Ratner's, the restaurant Seth and his family eat dinner in, is the same restaurant that Gene Hackman and Roy Scheider stake out in "The French Connection" (1971)
