That's not the point, though. If it were just "funny cop picture" trying to tack on an analysis of sub-prime lending at the end, that'd be bad enough. The movie is so (intentionally) pointless and silly, that spending that much money on nonsense seems weird, and then trying to tack on a message at the end is even weirder. Spending millions of dollars on something so foolish is fine; doing that and then claiming you're being socially responsible is kind of offensive.

And like everything else, the problem is that they didn't know where to quit. The credits would've been just a false note, if they hadn't gone on and tried to put a "common man" spin on it. You want to show me a chart reminding me that CEOs make millions and millions more from failure than I'll ever see from a lifetime of hard work? Well, so do Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg. I wouldn't have minded as much, movie, if you hadn't just pointed it out to me.
