Sorry, this movie sucks

I wanted to but couldn't!

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

20 years in from "Roger and Me" and Michael Moore still continues to be one of the ultimately greatest voices for political sanity I know of, by making what is BY FAR one of the most important documentaries EVER! I'm re-watching it at home, and realizing TOTALLY, that it is/(was) impossible to get it all on the first viewing... and I'm now also discovering that the DVD extras are truly FANTASTIC! Congressman Elijah Cummings, shedding a tear from his right eye, as he is being interviewed by Michael about the PERMANENT and catastrophic LOSSES being suffered by middle class and poor people, is SO SUPERB! The FDR speech about a new (2nd) Bill of Rights is incredible!!! Spread this film around... it is relevant now more than ever... and its issues are SO crucial to our survival as a species on the planet and any lasting hopes for "We the People" to be free from the obscene + greedy bastards' oppressions! If I were a teacher my class would see this film... whatever I was charged with teaching. Live forever Michael Moore - you are TRULY a saint!!!

As is usually the case with Michael Moore's movies, he brings some very valid points, wrapped in manipulative gimmicks and appealing visuals. And it works, it entertains and it sends its messages across, but now more than ever it feels forced; Moore offers very little substantial information, instead forcing his point and attacking his enemies with vicious relentlessness.Capitalism: A Love Story is a good piece of documentary cinema, but it's much less important than Sicko, Bowling for Columbine, or even Fahrenheit 9/11 - which was also heavily manipulative but much more effective and actually had something important to say.

Michael Moore puts aside the majority of his comical shenanigans. It helps the film in terms of sincerity, but damages it's entertainment value. Moore usually has a way of making us laugh while getting us to think. Here, however, he makes some misguided choices. Actor Wallace Shawn discusses politics, Moore asks priests if Capitalism is evil, and he only interviews people that fail to define what derivatives are. His commentary and added effects to news archive footage is sometimes well done, but usually lacks subtlety. As always, he brings forth some horrendous injustices. It would just be nice to see him offer a defense for his accused.

I'll have to give this a 10 out of 10...for the delusional.Michael Moore masquerades as a man of the people - a guy who fights the oppressive fat cats of a capitalist society. Really, what does it matter if you're not subject to the rules you want set out for the less fortunate? Moore's made millions making people believe he isn't a filmmaker as well as a millionaire.Moore's a capitalist because he's taken advantage of the freedom it provides him to make money off of bashing capitalism and other subjects that rise up into the public consciousness.If you think for a minute that Michael Moore wants to saddle up next to you and listen to your problems - think again. The man is looking down on you from his mansion and laughing all the way to the bank.
