Trailing toxic-finance fumes from the likes of “Wall Street” and “Boiler Room,” but also traces of the hilarity of “Jerry Maguire,” “Bull Run” is a comedy about Bobby Sanders (Tom Blyth), an ex-professional hockey player turned junior investment banker. He attempts to find the meaning to life while navigating the cutthroat, surreal world of high finance.
