It's worth seeing though the plot is predictable and ending is weak.
Parts of it brought back memories of my first sales job at a software
company back in NJ (now owned by Computer Associates).

I went to see it this weekend.  My wife who is a pretty tough critic
thought
it was pretty good.  As for me, my opinion would be unbiased because
anything that has any sort of trading in it I would rate a thumbs UP.  I
also thought it was a pretty good impression of what actually happens in
real life.
