Summary: Don't believe everything you hear!
Review: This is an extraordinary, powerful, and well thought out movie. It is harsh on the Bush administration and their failures. But more importantly... it is ALL documented. You will hear a ton of BAD things about this movie from the extremely political people out there. Facts are hard to dispute, so a spin campaign is in full force. Michael Moore anticipated this and had complete documentation of his sources available for your own research. Go to http://www.michaelmoore.com/warroom/f911notes / and check the sources to verify the accuracy of this movie before you listen to any of the negative propaganda against it. So I emplore you, DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR... check it out for yourself and be intelligently informed. This movie is a MASTERPIECE!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Even if only 1/5th of this film is true ... WE MUST WAKE UP.
Review: This movie shocked me.

I've always taken Michael Moore with a grain of salt. Sure, I've always enjoyed Michael Moore's films immensely, but I haven't been easily manipulated by his film-making. Some of his tactics disappoint. But what do you expect? Michael Moore's films are not the History Channel. They were never intended to be. See the pictures of Michael Moore on the front of the DVD boxes? Well, there's your tip-off that his films are The World According to Michael Moore.

It doesn't matter. Michael Moore's work expands my world view and causes me to pause, think, and question. That's what any filmmaker SHOULD do, regardless of his or her political leanings.

Back to the movie. If only 1/5th of this movie is proven to be true, it is SHOCKING.

I have tried to get both perspectives. So far, the more conservative viewpoints have pointed my attention to discrepancies such as the date the Bin Ladens actually left this country. That's fine, because integrity should be questioned. More troubling to me is that Michael Moore's larger premises have not been attacked -- that this administration has long had business interests which may be affecting U.S. foreign policy decisions. No one seems to argue with that. Some even say, "So what? Everyone already knows that." Well, why is it permissible to spend millons to investigate a man allegedly screwing an intern, but it's considered in poor taste for an American to question whether an entire cabinet is allegedly screwing this country? It seems to me that the media loves that we are so focused on reality TV, because our attention is so distracted that we hardly know what is going on right beneath our noses.

Wake up America. You don't have to agree with this film, but please watch it, question Mr. Moore's premises, and come to your own conclusions.
