Can someone recommend me some good business related movies? I've been watching entourage lately (watched all seasons within a span of 2-3 weeks) and basically Ari's character has kinda got me on the prowl for some business oriented movies, as I myself am familiar with that environment.
PS. I've seen Boiler Room (It's fucken ILL)

i'd go ahead and say if you haven't seen wall street than you should be required to change your username..
but i'd also add:
glen garry glen ross
swimming with sharks
the Enron documentary, i forget the official title

Gung Ho is one of my favorite movies of all time. I saw that about 20 times when I was a kid.
A good recent film about business that's underrated is In Good Company. Don't prejudge cause it has Topher Grace; it's a good film.
