*PONZI schemes
Abstract

Is it possible to run a bait-and-switch scam in reverse? I can't think of another way to describe the odd trick pulled off by ''The Other Guys,'' a new goofballs-and-fireballs comedy directed by Adam McKay. The closing credit sequence is, in effect, a tease for a movie quite different from the one that has just concluded. Bold, brightly colored charts and graphs fill the screen with enraging data about bloated chief-executive bonuses, billion-dollar bank bailouts, Ponzi schemes and other entries in the encyclopedia of modern financial infamy. Looking at these shocking numbers in isolation, you might be tempted to think that you had just watched an angry populist satire skewering the powerful and the privileged. But such topical provocation has been missing from commercial American comedy for a very long time, and ''The Other Guys'' is no exception. Its plot does feature a devious equity-fund manager (played by the reliable British weasel-for-hire Steve Coogan) and a Wall Street vixen, but the plot is neither the movie's point nor its most memorable feature.
