Michael Moore's fierce and funny Fahrenheit 9/11 is not so much a documentary as a mythology, reducing geopolitical complexities to a neat, tawdry narrative.

Isn't quite the bullseye Moore's supporters are hoping for and Bush's supporters are dreading.
02/03/08
If all the world is truly a stage, then leftie bad boy Michael Moore is chief scavenger of the behind-the-scenes skeletons in the storage closet.
05/24/07
The problem with Fahrenheit 9/11 is not that it is one-sided, per se; it is that Moore barely acknowledges there even is another side.
09/28/06
Fahrenheit is, by turns, entertaining, incisive, infuriating, heartbreaking and (this being Moore) slickly populist
08/21/06
Michael Moore proves in his scathing yet facile anti-Bush documentary that more than a good filmmaker he is first and foremost indefatigably populist comedian for whom timing is everything.
06/25/06
En general, Michael Moore no es, ni ha sido, un ejemplo de profundidad en el análisis de sus extremas posiciones políticas.

Moore's film doesn't set out to convert the hardcore faithful. It sets out to convert the concerned, the independent and the open.
