I thought the reaction and maybe even mine was shock and then the laughter of relief... but I could be wrong.
WAs it just me or did the Matt and Leo characters start to dress alike and have similar haircuts towards the end? Not in the office but outside they had wincheaters and that hairdo that's all brushed forwards aaprt from the very front (sorry, best way I can describe it).
I know the line at the start (here comes spoiler ALERT)... when you're satring at a gun, what's the difference? and I figured it was to do with that. For instance, in the porn cinema and afterwards in the street, they looked very alike.
Follow Ups:
I remember thinking about the similarity between them too but with just a passing thought, maybe it was a clue as to the direction the movie was going? We are probably reading too much into it - based on reviews of many directors I have seen, these things are often coincidents...I actully laughed many times in this movie, I think it may have to do with a script that keeps you on your toes by being so cleverly written - you are more likely to react because there is no time for you to manage yourself and reactions.
The continual abuse that almost everyone directs at everyone else, and pointedly its sexual/genser bias nature is presumably to locate the similar sensibilities of both camps.
Some of it is pretty funny isn't it?
It was to circle back to the beginning, where they are virtually indistinguishable in the Police Academy training montage.
