    It's a clip from the movie The Laundromat, which is based on a true story. It is a dramatization of the 2016 Panama Papers scandal, which exposed how the global elite used offshore shell companies to hide wealth, avoid taxes, and launder money

    Having an at-home Soderbergh Film Fest. Began with Presence, which I didn't love, but I'm glad I caught up with it. Continuing with 2019's The Laundromat, and probably ending with 2020's Let Them All Talk. I've seen nearly 30 films, so I may end there. Seeing The Christophers on Tuesday.

    Unfortunately the Panama Papers has never gotten enough attention — even with a movie about the true story “The Laundromat” and a great cast: Meryl Streep, Gary Oldman, Antonio Banderas, and more. It’s now on Netflix. It’s based on the book “Secrecy World” about the Panama Papers scandal.

    To be clear: THE LAUNDROMAT, like most Netflix films, received only a brief awards-qualifying theatrical run before being pulled and shunted to streaming. If it had made $300 million it would have been the 10th highest grossing film of the year!

    I've seen the movie The Laundromat about the Panama Papers and it's insane how they can get away with hiding money in a company that's a shell of a shell of a shell and have no real management or financial structure. Just a shield to protect their wealth.

It's about the Panama Papers and it shows you how, if you know how the financial rules work, you can get around so much and not get caught when they trace it back to a shell company that's a shell of a shell of a shell. Brookfield makes money off of us.

    THE LAUNDROMAT - This was very disappointing. I had hoped a comedy crime film about the Panama Papers with Meryl Streep, directed by Stephen Soderburgh, and music by David Holmes would be full-proof. Sadly, it's boring, vapid and rather pleased with itself. A waste of Antonio Banderas too.

    The movie The Laundromat is about the Panama Papers. It's told in a way that makes it easy to understand what they were up to. Most of those were holding companies of holding companies of holding companies that only had assets on paper - they weren't real.

Instead, it delivered a largely pedestrian investi-journo kind of piece that traded heavily on the names of it's three stars and very little on any meaningful substance.
