People rooted for Gecko because he was one of the main characters of the movie, people want to see him as an example on how to be and how to make money. He was not a role model, even the movie explicitly covers that, but society loves anti-heroes. We can just look at tv shows like The Sopranos, Mad men and Breaking Bad —- the shows explicitly show you how bad these guys are, and the consequences of their actions and we still want to root for them to get away with it.
What does that say about our society?
