Reflections on the Bush administration

Always controversial, Michael Moore focuses his attention on the Bush administration. He begins with the Florida election fiasco, followed by the September 11th tragedy. Instead of professing what Bush did or did not do, Moore provides footage of broadcasts and airport logs to depict what actually happened. One issue being the government's assistance in flying Bin Laden's family out of the US. Another interesting moment is that Bush was reading to an elementary school class when he learned the US was under attack on September 11th ... we are shown footage of him being told BUT continuing to sit there and read to the school children. Additionally, Moore tackles military recruitment practices and lives effected by the Iraq war.

The documentary is told in a familiar Moore style -- witty, sarcastic, informative, and truly human. I enjoyed the film for providing me with an aggregated view of certain events so that I can form my own opinion. If politics and world events are of interest, I recommend this film. Whether you are a Bush fan or not, I think this film is worth watching. Certain scenes depict graphic images that I would not recommend for children.

Displays Great On A Toilet Paper Roll.

I will be the first to admit that Moore is a very entertaining and witty individual. Honestly in this day and age people need whole truths, not agenda truths. Is the Bush administration perfect? No. Was the Clinton administration perfect? No. Does this movie contain absolute true facts? NO. Sadly, alot of brainless individuals praise this film because they simply hate George W. Bush and they desperately want to believe everything in this film and have nightmares that any of it would be disputed with actual facts (which it has). Some of the people in the movie didn't even know they were in the film and were outraged that purchased footage of themselves was presented falsely. I will say this is a great film for people who lack the ability to think for themselves. Word to the wise: investigate everything you watch, conservative or liberal, republican or democrat, no matter leaning to the left or right, investigate what you are being told. If you bought this one hook, line and sinker I ask you this, If Moore's next movie was about how fecal matter made a tasty breakfast treat, would think twice or have a bite?Read full review...

Fahrenheit 9/11 - Michael Moore - Documentary

It was a very eye opening film of the events prior, during and after 9/11. I like the way Moore displays information on how our government could have had a hand in the attack on 9/11. He gives very good information which support this idea. I love the way he tried to get the congressmen to send their kids to Iraq since they support the war. I like how Moore had clips of the people directly affected by the "War on Terror" and not only from the American viewpoint but the Iraqi people as well. The news should show some interviews with people from Iraq who witnessed the "terror" that they are all experiencing. We are all human (equal) and need to see each other as humans and not as Americans or Iraqis, etc. I think that is what Michael Moore is trying to say in this film. I rented this movie first and had to have it so I could allow other people to watch it as well. I also watched Fahrenhype 9/11 and honestly did not understand what their arguement was against Fahrenheit 9/11. Their opinions weren't presented in way that made sense and it just seemed like they were hired by the people Moore exposed to discredit Moore by any means possible. They did not do a good job. Anyway if you enjoy not being ignorant, watch this film.Read full review...

SPIN as you see fit

Ah no, this is the junk journalism taught in the higher education system today. I recommend the the movie "Fahrenhype 911" or the book - Micheal more is a Big Fat Stupid White Man- This movie has nothin to do with documentation other than the documentation of how it is possible to create alternate realities through clips and phrases, voice overing, splicing, scarcasm, badgering people and taking advantage of those who think that The US government only deals in conspiracy when the Republicans are in office. If you can believe this stuff you should seek medical help, it is journalism meets Sci Fi.This guy portrays himself as the poor blue collar man from Detroit but he has made millions on duping people into beliving this junk journalism,He charges $40,000 to make an appearance at a State University, He did it to my School, and wouldn't you know he only makes apearances during election time.Read full review...

Fahrenheit 9/11

Not only does Michael Moore take you deep into the bowels of the Bush corruption, this movie will show you how an illegal war affected human life and our country. This movie reeks of corruption and Bushes ties to terrorists. Bush couldn't find a way to go to start a war that Congress would approve, so he decided to ignore the security alerts that were sent to the White House that terrorists were planing to attack the US. This was such an inside job it was pathetic. When the towers were hit Bush was in a class room reading My Pet Goat to children. When you see his eyes you will know he is guilty. Not only did he stay in the class room for another 20 minutes, he went outside and did 20 minutes of photo ops before taking off and flying the friendly skys to places unknown while NY was under attack. People think that only Towers 1 and 2 were hit, but that's wrong. Tower 7 was hit, but it imploded. Dick Cheney also had an office in Tower 7. Buildings don't implode without the help of explosives. Conspiracy? Watch the movie and you be the judge.Read full review...

Bitter pill to swallow...for Bush lover's !

Everyone in America should see this film! It should have been mandatory viewing prior to the last election.Regardless of your personal views about Michael Moore,His work speaks for itself. He shows you the slimy underbelly of the Bush administration and how they've lied and deceived and cheated the American public.Michael uses a comedic approach to help aleviate the seriousness of some of the subjects but, Still manages to "Scare the Hell out you..." when you realize this is for real! And not just another movie from someone's imagination...You could'nt make this sh*t up!
Farenheit 9/11 proves that the Truth is sometimes Scarier than Fiction...And in this case It's VERY,VERY Scary!
Great Job by Michael Moore,You'll also like "Bowling for Columbine".

Funny movie

I'm not saying michael moore is 100% right but the way in which he presents his information makes his movies uniquely funny. ive seen most of his major films and this they are all great. then again i'm not all liberal or all conservative im a little of both so my opinion is not biased by political views. i think its a dvd worth adding to your collection and i got it for 2.25 shipped which is a good price for any dvd i would watch more than once or would recommend for someone else.Read full review...

Who is behind this? and what is the goal?

Is a clever way to attack the administration, however I grew up In Europe and I saw these tricks before.
What I do not like is that I see more cheating by the producer of this propaganda material than any American politician ever did. I would like to know who is behind the producer, who are his friends, who gave him money to make this why he made it.... I would like to know what religion he belongs to( hint hint) , yes, I am sure we could make a much more interesting " documentary" about the character of the producers than about the politicians. .
It was a waist of my money in time to watch this, if you know your IQ is above 90, than do not buy because you will see behind the wall .....and will realize that MR., Moore tried to pool a trick on you and on the public opinion. By the way. Is there any way to get my money back?
