Fahrenheit 9/11 (DVD, 2004)

Always controversial, Michael Moore focuses his attention on the Bush administration. He begins with the Florida election fiasco, followed by the September 11th tragedy. Instead of professing what Bush did or did not do, Moore provides footage of broadcasts and airport logs to depict what actually happened. One issue being the government's assistance in flying Bin Laden's family out of the US. Another interesting moment is that Bush was reading to an elementary school class when he learned the US was under attack on September 11th ... we are shown footage of him being told BUT continuing to sit there and read to the school children. Additionally, Moore tackles military recruitment practices and lives effected by the Iraq war.

The documentary is told in a familiar Moore style -- witty, sarcastic, informative, and truly human. I enjoyed the film for providing me with an aggregated view of certain events so that I can form my own opinion. If politics and world events are of interest, I recommend this film. Whether you are a Bush fan or not, I think this film is worth watching. Certain scenes depict graphic images that I would not recommend for children.
