...... go check out "The International." I saw it today......quite entertaining and eerily timely. It's like a banking version of the Bourne Identity.

4. They control your money. They control your government. They control your life.
And everybody pays.

Plot summary for
The International (2009) More at IMDbPro »

In The International, Interpol Agent Louis Salinger and Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Eleanor Whitman are determined to bring to justice one of the world's most powerful banks. Uncovering illegal activities including money laundering, arms trading, and the destabilization of governments, Salinger and Whitman's investigation takes them from Berlin to Milan to New York and to Istanbul. Finding themselves in a high-stakes chase across the globe, their relentless tenacity puts their own lives at risk as the bank will stop at nothing - even murder - to continue financing terror and war.
