Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring the Norway segment, it is stated that mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik, who was responsible for several terrorist attacks in 2011 that killed 77 Norwegians, was sentenced to a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 21 years in prison. It is also mentioned that 21 years imprisonment is the maximum penalty in Norway, regardless of how many casualties there were. Although this is true, it should be added that Breivik was specifically sentenced to containment. Containment or preventive detention means that although the initial sentence is 21 years, the imprisonment can be extended indefinitely, as long as the convict is considered a danger to society, so in practice this probably means life imprisonment.
- GoofsWhen listing what the French get extra for their tax money besides basic services, on screen text states 4 weeks paid vacation. The French have a minimum of 5 weeks paid vacation and 11 legal holidays a year.
- Quotes
Michael Moore: I am an American. I live in a great country, that was born in genocide and built on the backs of slaves.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of the credits, we see a woman scaling a flagpole and cutting down a Confederate Battle Flag, while we hear a pair of men (presumably some sort of law-enforcement officers) requesting that she stop. Accompanying that scene are the words of Moore's battle cry: "Hammer. Chisel. Down."

Featured review
Just like Mr. Moore's previous works, brilliant, raw and based on the truth and statistics. The contrast was overwhelming and sickening but he finished it on a positive note. That if only we realize we, the people, realize we have all that it takes, we can bring the wall down, one hammer and chisel at a time. But as one of the guys in the movie said we have "a long way to go". He covered all the relevant issues of our today's society, from women's equal pay to nutrition, from student loans to bankers getting away with murder, from criminalization of drugs and its connection to race to police brutality, from an overworked and underpaid society to disappearance of middle class, from capital punishment to mistreatment of the incarcerated, and more....It is eye-opening and educational, to say the least and makes you wonder why we we "go home and are okay" with all of this. Because "nobody should be".
