There was an assumption of audience knowledge that shouldn't have been there tbh. You have to have some knowledge about the 2008 financial crisis for a lot of this movie to make any sense. Kind of annoying, even if you do understand what's going on. They easily could've added a 5 minute scene to the beginning (or anywhere else really) that showed someone on a fixed income getting approved for a mortgage they clearly couldn't afford and it would've made the core issue way more clear for the audience. The hollow ending didn't do the movie any favors either.
