illuminating sidebar submitted by MaggieCupcakes on June 6, 2011, 12:58pm An interesting commentary appears here:

that casts the film in an alternative perspective. As if mere mortals could ever really know what goes on at the highest levels of "authority." There will always be an element that cries "conspiracy!" Nevertheless, the information in this article provides some thought-provoking counterpoint.

good movie submitted by codyson159 on July 9, 2011, 3:20pm it was kinda slow at the beginning but it ended up being a good movie after it was all said and done

very interesting submitted by jszchen on August 20, 2011, 3:19pm None of the people who were largely at fault or the heads of the companies were willing to participate in the interviews. Also with the billions they were paid each year they did not have to pay any compensation for the downfall. The most irritation thing was that when the government bailed some of them out they used the money for bonuses - how is that right?
