I watched this movie last night and thought it was interesting. Slanted, but interesting. I tend to be fiscally conservative but socially liberal and I like political statements. Any opionions out there?

I have not seen this movie, nor do I plan to see it. I refuse to put money in his pocket so he can make his statements. However, I have seen many interviews with people in the film and most of them all said the same thing.....what they said was taken out of context. Many of them said that only part of what they said was used or comments were edited for content. The military members in this movie were not happy about how they were portrayed or how their words were used. Just about everyone I know feels the same way, so this film would go under if it were up to us.
EDIT: I don't think it's right to criticize how people think. Just because I haven't seen the movie doesn't mean that my opinion doesn't count and I very clearly stated why I haven't and won't see it. Also, I'm not a "liberal" or a "conservative" or anything else that is party related. I firmly believe a president and members of Congress should be elected by what they will do for America and all Americans. Next time, maybe you should try answering the question without judging the other people answering the question.

There was a soldier who was interviewed for this movie. He thought this Pig Michael Moore was interviewing him about Columbine Co. because he lived near there. Moore asked him some questions about being in the military and when the movie came out he had completely misconstrued his words. I saw his interview on Larry King Live. Also the makers of South Park said that Moore did a South Parkesque cartoon in the movie which made viewers think that they had the same "views" as Moore. they said they were appalled by this and has since lost some followers for it. I think that Moore is a pig. I voted for Bush. Do I since regret it? NO. I would vote for him a thousand times before Gore or that A** Kerry. He and his pompous wife. Arrgghh!!

Some of the footage in the movie is definitely worth seeing. The several minutes of inaction in the Florida classroom, among other clips.
However, the conspiracy theories that Moore spins are mostly ludicrous. Particularly the stuff about allowing the bin Laden family to leave the country.
Overall certainly worth seeing, but must be viewed with a critical eye.
...and BTW I wouldn't take seriously a comment by someone who hasn't even bothered to see the film.

Michael Moore is a liberal propagandist of the highest order. His films serve a particular audience with a particular agenda. They are about as much "documentaries" as the films Leni Riefenstahl made for the Nazis.

Did you ever notice that everyone that doesn't like it is one of these "boo-hoo liberal this liberal that liberals liberals liberals" people? They are just pissed because it exposes Bush as a phony. It was an excellent expose, if not creatively interpreted at parts.

I loved it, as I do all Michael Moore films. However, I'm a liberal, so I am most likely biased.
