Reviews
For all its gallows humor and choked laughter of disbelief, it feels rather soul-sick and bewildered.
Why do Americans seem so inclined to slaughter one another? Once again, Michael Moore has once again waded into some rather murky waters to weigh in on a very thorny subject.
Even if his information is, oh, even 40% false... the ideas he is presenting need to be heard, examined, and reckoned with.
Moore’s timing couldn’t be better aimed for all Americans to search in their heart of hearts and ask why we live in a pathological gun culture.
Perhaps a world as outrageous as ours deserves a filmmaker as blunt as Michael Moore.
'Valiente ejercicio de uno de los pocos individuos pensantes por parte de Estados Unidos que se ha atrevido a hacerse escuchar'
Try and find this film, watch it and talk about it. The issues that it covers are ones that beg to be discussed, and this piece has only scratched the surface.
..is a lively movie that gives us, we believe, a firm grasp on the side of pro-gun control activists while portraying gun rights supporters as purveyors of senseless violence.
Las preguntas y sus posibles respuestas adquieren una dimensión mucho más impactante al ser formuladas por un estadounidense, o sea que la crítica proviene de adentro.
No one would ever mistake Moore for anything but a mudslinging yellow journalist, but sometimes extreme issues require extreme measures.
