|
The United States of America is notorious for its astronomical number of people killed by firearms for a developed nation without a civil war. With his signature sense of angry humour, activist filmmaker Michael Moore sets out to explore the roots of this bloodshed. In doing so, he learns that the conventional answers of easy availability of guns, violent national history, violent entertainment and even poverty are inadequate to explain this violence when other cultures share those same factors without the equivalent carnage. In order to arrive at a possible explanation, Michael Moore takes on a deeper examination of America's culture of fear, bigotry and violence in a nation with widespread gun ownership. Furthermore, he seeks to investigate and confront the powerful elite political and corporate interests fanning this culture for their own unscrupulous gain.
Release Date: 2002

Pros:
No idea
Cons:
Based on very little fact
|
|
Michael Moore once again shows his total disregard for the truth so tha he can tell his slanted story. If you are a Moore fan you will like it. If you can think you may not. His "facts" and viewpoint are slanted one way with no room for debate.
