a pile of **** in a nice way.
I saw the film at the cinema. It didn`t really tell me anything I didn`t know. I think Moore was too obviously following an agenda. There is a certain bias in any documentary film-making - but I thought his was too blatant.
For me, "Bowling For Columbine" was way better.

Does anyone else see the irony here? The US invaded Iraq on the fraudulent scenario of a tie-in with Al-Quaida and the amassing of weapons of mass destruction. We bombarded them with a massive tonage of ordinance, declaring civilian casualties to be collateral damage.
Now those "overagressive terrorist Jews" in Israel dare to respond in kind to the bombardment of their people by a paramilitary guerilla force being given sanctuary by the government of a neighboring state. In this case the populace being used to shield the enemy reassumes its status as innocents and we are spoonfed a reaction of universal outrage from the international community.
What are the odds that the international community reacted every bit as strongly or even more negatively to our unwarranted aggression against a sovereign state?
This just has to be another typical case of our "liberal" press at work.

Perhaps the most pathetic and bogus film in history. There are at LEAST 56 PROVEN lies in it (about a third of the number of lies in Bowling For Columbine). And yes, I've seen it.
Before I saw it, I was at least expecting a strong challenge to President Bush, and from what I heard from the reviews, I was expecting to see something powerful. Instead what I saw made me laugh out loud. And ask out loud "THIS movie is supposed to have IMPACT?!" It is amature filmmaking. It is so obvious Moore was telling the hateful far-left what they wanted to hear instead of making an original point about Bush. It was pathetic, and a waste of two hours of my life that I will never get back.
No wonder it didn't make a scrap of difference in the election.

Fahrenheit movie?Just a simple piece of plain propaganda.John Carrie probably payed a lot for it.
Don't get me wrong,I am not a Bush supporter either.But considering that dockumentary as a some kind of eye-opener is very naive.

War is hell, though when people hide or hang out with killers your time comes a little quicker. Though I don't think Bush's numbers come anywhere close to the number of innocent lives abortionist's kill on a daily basis, though that's another chapter in a different book. Bush should've started with Iran first, turned the sand around Tehran to a thin coat of glass then started talks about turning over terrorists. Iran is the one.

I'm not saying your wrong, but what are those lies?
