I have, just got back from a midnight showing. This really is a great movie. Of course you would expect me to say that, but I wouldn't say it if I didn't feel it.
The best part of this movie is that Moore lets the pictures and situations do the talking. He is in this very little, and his narration, while obviously firey, only maintains credit because of what is showcased.
The only flaw that glared at me was that he didn't outright say that Al-Qaeda killed 3,000 people. In no way does his dispute this, but he doesn't mention it much either. Then again, he really doesn't have to, that's not the point of this movie. The point is to show us what the truth is: we already all know Al-Qaeda are the culprits; what the public doesn't know is all of the Bush tie-ins, possible motives, and other fallacies of the administration (and both parties elected officials) that have misled us. It is nothing that hasn't been public before, but it is put together in a fashion that the public can understand what has taken place in the last 3 years.
That is why this is a good movie.

The "proper context" is a context where bush looks good. That's why we never hear anything about him that isn't "taken out of context".

I'm still interested to see whether MM keeps his promise that he will "debate any right-wingers on this anytime". Joe Scarborough has invited him on his show already...let's see what MM is made of.

quote: Actually, I have found one typo in the theatrical release of the film. It was a caption that read, "Willie Horton released by Dukakis and kills again." In fact, Willie Horton was a convicted murderer who, after escaping from furlough, raped a woman and stabbed her fiancé, but didn't kill him. The caption has been permanently corrected on the DVD and home video version of the film and replaced with, "Willie Horton released. Then rapes a woman." My apologies to Willie Horton and the Horton family for implying he is a double-murderer when he is only a single-murderer/rapist. |
