Impressed
I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was very impressed with the combination of comedy, tragedy, and historical explanation. Yes, there is a bit of playing to the camera by Moore himself however, I enj Read more...

"Rich get richer...works if you're rich. :) I learned many things which I didn't know, like companies profiting from life insurance policies on their employees. Dr. Salk giving away the polio vaccine, derivatives, get senior citizens out of their homes, etc. A bit socialistic, but informative none Read more...
The director of this movie , just brings the cold hard truth to the audience. I loved this movie , it tells you exactly what has happened and what is going to happen. Towards the end the movie felt like a drag and at points it got a bit too overboard but still its a great movie to watch once , might Read more...
I am not a big fan of Moore, but I like the various stories and aspects of the crisis. The problem with this story is it is a little one-sided for my taste. I am also not a big fan of listening to whiners which seems this movie is full of. Sorry people if you don't pay your bills then you get your s Read more...
"I like Michael Moore. I really do. But this movie is too long. Way too long. As part of his ""intended audience"", I had a real hard time sitting though it. It was all stuff that I already knew, and I kept waiting for some kind of kicker that would drive the whole thing home. Oh well. Keep work Read more...
"I would always describe Michael Moore's movies as very one sided with lots of shock. This movie is no different in the first sense but it tends to drag. The movie is about 2 hours long and it feels much longer than that. I don't know if it cause I know his movie will be proved wrong in a 10 minute Read more...
Michael moore is a fat slug, that reminds me of jaba the hut. In this documentary he uses his best skill: telling lies. Moore once said "Canadians have free health care" -- as any human being with a brain can find out this is just not true. The tax payers pay for the health care. Moore is so full of Read more...
"Wow, Michael Moore must have taken some punches approaching security guards at Bank of America etc. In this movie Moore: - looks at why GM has failed compared to German and Japanese rivals, - tries to understand derivatives, - flashes back to the Financial Crisis of '08/'09 with footage of sen Read more...
"This was actually the first Moore film I have seen. Always thought of him as a leftist nutjob. Still kinda do, as he is trying to appeal to all those that have been harmed by 'capitalism' all the while it is the capitalist market that allows him to succeed as a filmmaker - albeit his films don't Read more...
If we can count on Michael Moore to provide anything more than a controversial film, it is an interesting viewpoint and a wealth of data we wouldn't have seen otherwise. I liked this film if for no other reason than it made me think. It prompted me to take a good hard look at the capitalist system a Read more...
I have not seen many Moore films but this one I thought was pretty good. He touched on many good points and brought out many points the average blind American would never even think about. I was not surprised on points he brought out like corporations taking out a dead peasant payment when their emp Read more...
