How accurate was this movie? Should the bankers have been jailed?

Probably not even remotely accurate.

what movie?

Not really. Lewis is really trying to cash out on the anti Wall Street meme. He can write a good story, but his accuracy is dismal at best.

For what? They broke zero laws except the few who did predatory loans.

This. I mean, there was extremely sketchy stuff going down in terms of things like dishonesty regarding credit ratings for securities, but it was all technically within the confines of the law.

I can't speak to the movie because I haven't seen it. However, I can speak to the trailer. What it fails to portray is that it's not just the bankers. It's also the government with a vested political interest in continual growth of the American economy through debt and the poltical aim of each American owning their own home; and the common American, deluded that they can finance things that they can't afford through excessive debt. The people who are punished are the frugal - the savers.
