Misrepresented the government’s role horribly.
But was a fun watch.
Intriguing but we watched New Years eve in a theater where they served drinks and I was into my Vodka sodas. Great acting, I thought the movie, for Hollywood anyway, subtly did blame government, but did it even handed, basically the government did let this get out of hand, when the dust cleared nobody got in trouble ( yet it was clear they had disdain for the government for bailing out banks and big finance companies that let it happen). A few people got rich at the expense of the individual. As a movie goer it made you sick of both.
The history they went through would have made it hard to just blame Bush and quite frankly not trying to make a political point made it that much better.
True but they couldn't conceal the fact that the bailouts happened. What's the greater evil, the frauds at every layer of the system or the perversely incentivizing government bailing them out with money wrought out of thin air?
