    Worth a watch for sure. Obviously it is completely biased one way but that shouldn't detract from the message the film is getting acoss. Besides this film alone has actually got some non political people interested in how their country is run.

    A powerful film imo.

    I did like watching it, no doubts there at all.

    However - clearly it is full of spin and prob paid for by someone. Yet, i dont dount that some of the film has trurth in it - but the president of the usa is never going to sue anyone.

    At the end of the day it was worth watching and did have some quesitons which needed answers - but maybe they should given Bush the right2reply.

    Dont get me wrong - I think both Bush and Kerry were evil sods but at the end of the day it comes down to who is better of both evils - I wouldn't vote for either to be honest.

    From speaking to American friends they believe that Bush is trying to make space between the rich and the poor, but they do like the fact that he is definative, he knows what he wants to do.... Right or wrong.

    Powerful film, but it slightly got a bit boring for me towards the end.

    The intro was good, when it talks about Bush playing golf, and the amount of time he actually does any work.

    Just because someone takes time off doesn't mean they are not working - take me, I am on the other side of the planet working....

    didn't really enjoy this, didn't say anything outside the bleeding obvious, and seemed too preachy

    much prefer earlier moore stuff, e.g. blowing for columbine, or the awful truth tv series

    Moore rocks...primarily cos he's funny.

    Am half way through Stupid White Men, and will move on to Dude Where's my Country.

    Was a big fan of The Awful Truth, and Bowling for Columbine was alright. Wasn't keen on 9/11 though.
