I don't rent movies that are produced by a self-proclaimed "producer" that manipulates facts, data, and information into a documentary and carrys a obvious political agenda. (Except maybe Charleton Heston

)

I would suggest "Michael Moore Hates America" documentary next to flush your system of the brainwashing that has taken place in front of your TV.

even CNN called him a big fat liar about the film. The man is incapable of telling the truth.

I admit it would be an interesting subject.
But it has two problems that hurts its credibility.

Its writer and its director.

Now this might very well be the gospel truth.
I admit I dont know one way or the other.

But the fact remains he has ruined any semblence of credibility.
which makes it all too hard to take anything he tries to say seriously

hortlund... if michele moore had some shooting and airplane fights and stuff in his movies then I might watch em. knowing that he is lieing through the whole so called documentaries he makes and telling us it is gospel is not a pleasant experience for me.

Review: 'Sicko' a tonic, even with flaws

Here is the CNN review. It does mention flaws in the movie, but it also ends with this line:

Quote

It's not impossible that this bitterly funny, bitterly sad call to alms could move reform back up the political agenda. For that reason alone, you owe it to yourself to see this movie.

I think the point is that cnn... the lock step with socialism channel... the left wing of media.. the point is that if even they say it is full of BS... er.... "flaws"...

I would rather watch something with some objectivity and truth to it.

I dont know if he is lying in sicko, I havent seen it. I do know that Moore considered to film in Sweden to compare with the US, but they chose not to, because everone in the US would think the Swedish health care model wass made up. Instead they filmed in Norway I think.

and everyone knows that sweden is an exact duplicate of the USA except tiny and colder... it is like looking in a mirror. your system seems to handle it's 12 million illegals who don't even speak the language and 17% negro population just fine.

How do you do it!! it is amazing.

I can't wait for Moore's mockumentary on Obesity and the drain it puts on the healthcare system!

I see MT caught the usual suspects in this pretty obvious troll.

The wringing of hands is amusing to watch.

I saw his 9/11 film. It was a really beautiful con job. I dont have any desire to get mind tooled like that again.

I think the real point is that every single (negative) opinion written in this thread is completely uninformed.
