Michael Moore Hates America
You know, all political views and opinions aside (that's not why I watched it and not why I enjoyed it) this movie is good if for nothing else to show you what gets through as truth. I don't believe this wholeheartedly either because everybody has their own agendas but there were a lot of things on here that I liked. Penn said it right when he said as soon as the camera comes on you're lying (I also liked his "Shut the fuck up." comment lol). I don't think Michael Moore hates America, I simply think he caters to a certain potion of America that really want change and they want to believe what he says so they do without any further research. I think Moore is a smart, manipulative man and this movie showed some of that. Moore's an asshole and he's out for himself and money but then again, so are millions of other people. They simply didn't get to the camera first. I've watch Bowling, Roger, Farenheight, Farenhype... I love seeing both sides of everything and it's just so interesting how everybody has a point to counter their opponents even if they have to make them up. A very interesting watch but again I stress this movie, for me, was NOT about any political viewpoint and I suggest you only watch it because you like or dislike Michael Moore. Again, I really dug this movie and I think that Michael did a great job showing us a different side of Michael Moore. Is that the real side? I don't know, people can decide for themselves. I can't get over Penn though; "If you cut this footage so that I'm more negative about Michael Moore than I really am or I make points that I didn't make I'll hunt you down and fucking kill you.". Pardon my diatribe... you'll get over it.
