Celsius 41.11: The Temperature at Which the Brain... Begins to Die

"To describe it (Fahrenheit 9/11) as an exercise in facile crowd-pleasing would be too obvious." What makes "free-thinkers" so convinced that they can't trust anyone of political sway except Michael Moore? That this man should be somehow exempt from the nature of leftist skepticism is grossly hypocritical--how can we believe that everyone has a corrupt capitalistic or political agenda except him? Leftist skepticism itself brandishes a highly learned attitude toward social stance, yet sponging ideas from user friendly informational mediums such as Moore documentaries is by no means an unbiased source. Furthermore, liberalism by description is supposed to define a spirit of tolerance--not the brand of embittered tolerance so common today, which both demands that everyone share its stance while contradicting its own sensibility. Neutrality that demands that everyone else be neutral is not true neutrality.

I just saw this movie and my God is it bad.... at least Michael Moore can be funny. It's not concerned with the truth, it's just concerned with responding in some scare-tactic way to Michael Moore -- another reason why conservatives really ARE scared stiff of this maverick filmmaker. Pure crap from beginning to end... and I find liberals annoying. It's not only that the "film" (I hesitate to call it that) reeks of right wing propaganda, it's also the fact that the director, quite frankly, has zero talent. At least Moore makes you care, this film makes you puke and ashamed to be an American. Anyone who finds merit in this film also finds merit in Nazi propaganda...

If you're willing (gullible enough?) to buy into the Democratic propaganda machine, then you owe it to yourself to view the Republican's propaganda machine.

This film looks at Kerry's record, as well as delves into Michael Moore's history and addresses some of the blatant inconsistencies in Fahrenheit 9/11. This film is certainly biased, however they bring up interesting counter-points to Fahrenheit 9/11's arguments.

I encourage you to watch both movies and use your intelligence to discern what is fact and what is fiction. I'll leave that up to the viewer to decide, unlike the reviewer before me.

Finally, something good coming from Hollywood. Too often we see liberal propaganda coming from this elite group of people who are more out of touch with regular American life it is incredible. I love the way liberals are so outraged by this documentary. Its okay for them to make a documentary making fun of the leader of the free world and trying to turn September 11th into a laughing matter and saying it Bush's fault but heaven forbid anyone points out their hypocrisy and arrogance. This movie goes through and points out the "beloved" Bill Clinton's failures when it came to hunting down terrorists. Clinton was too concerned with covering up his scandals and immoral behavior to secure the safety of our nation. People have long been wondering what Senator Kerry has done in the Senate the past 20 years since he never spoke about it. Well, if you want to find out about this record I suggest you see this movie. Has the thought that maybe liberals are so outraged by this movie is because it points out that they are wrong and destroys their liberal spin occurred to anyone??

Disappointing, somewhat cheaply-made rebuke to the anti-Bush propaganda that led up to the 2004 U.S. presidential election, particularly Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11. It's basically a series of remarks from right-leaning analysts, including writer Charles Krauthammer, spliced with footage exposing the savageness of some anti-war protesters and the bias of figures like Michael Moore. Given its release prior to the 2004 election, it also takes aim at that year's ultimately unsuccessful Democratic nominee for president, John Kerry. Other topics covered include the razor-close 2000 election and appropriate responses to the threat of terrorism.

There are interesting films to be made from the right of the political spectrum (Michael Moore Hates America, to name the best). But this quickie production is never as good as it could have been. It's neither terrible nor great. Polical hacks will enjoy it more than anyone, but the average viewer will likely find it a bore.
