A Bit Of A Trainwreck At The End
Anyone else find the Salt-N-Peppa video at the end a bit "jammed in"? This movie had a great pace right up until the last few moments when they suddenly zap into a three minute music video that seems to just slam on the brakes for no reason.
It's like the producers were handed a script and at the last minute told the writers "By the way, we want you to write in a Salt-N-Peppa video somewhere."
To which the writers replied: "Oh, really? 'Cause it really doesn't fit with the rest of the movie."
"Add it or you're fired."
"Well, how about during the closing credits?"
"No, during the movie. Everybody's got to see it!"
"Ok, maybe we can just stick it in at the end."
I liked this movie (overall) but that music video just seemed to be slapped in as an afterthought. I can only imagine it was some kind of contractual obligation or something because I really don't see any other reason they would have played the whole thing.
Anyone else feel this way?
