  Capitalism: A Love Story

  by sumnerscott

  What's wrong with America? Confusing capitalism with Democracy. And confusing capitalism with a free market. Nothing free market about how money buys policy in the US, and how finance and big business runs this nation not for the greater good, but for their own good, and the rest of us be damned.
  
  The media is not asleep, so much as wholly owned by finance and big business, so don't look for accurate reporting there. Michael Moore is one of the few voices for the rest of us, and this nation ought to sit up and listen.

  Don't listen to the "no-no's"

  by justacitizen

  I'm pretty sure that all the people who selected the 'oh-no" rating for this movie, are the people Michael Moore made this movie about. Its been said that the truth hurts, well it must really hurt to see yourselves on the big screen huh? I say this because any normal non corporate working "citizen" wouldn't turn down the truth, of the current condition our country is in. Michael Moore was on CNN and he said " that corporate goons spent millions of dollars trying to stop sicko from being released". Now if they will do something that severe, what would stop them from coming on Fandango.com and slamming this movie so you won't see it? Also if what he is saying is boring, untrue, crappy, irrelevant, opportunistic, and whatever else you all said then why would anyone go to the trouble to stop his films from seeing the light of day????? We need change, people are suffering it shouldn't be about money, and cover ups anymore. And I know what your thinking and your wrong, I voted for MCcain.

  Take your congressperson to a movie...

  by truthbe

  This is the best movie of Moore's yet. There is no way you could come away from it without agreeing with most of it. Something tells me there are some phony posts on here trying to lower the rating....nooooo, really????

  Everyone Go See This Movie

  by aja3787

  This is the best Michael Moore movie yet, in my opinion. As I watched the movie, all I could think was how all of the Rush Limbaugh/Sean Hannity/ Ann Coulter folks will be talking about Moore like he's the problem - when he's not. He sheds light on REAL problems for average Americans. I saw the movie in Washington DC and everyone in the packed theatre looked like an educated or "hip" person - perople who would lean to the left or enjoy Michael Moore anyhow, people who would run from anything O'Reilly, Limbaugh, etc. The problem is that its those AVERAGE Americans; living and dealing with these terrible issues (which have been created by a very small group of powerful people on Wall Street and Capitol Hill) are NOT the people who will see this movie. And this movie is exactly FOR THEM! How the Right is able to portray Mike Moore as an elitist, socialist, communist, Enemy of the People (and how so many people agree with that assessment) is simply beyond me.
  Bottom line, SEE THE MOVIE!

  Don't let those elephants trample you on the way to the theater

  by Nunyobiness

  Wow! what a bunch of Republican "Oh No!"ers. I had no idea this movie would disrupt their lives so much. Now those kind of reviews will most assuredly have my @ss in line this weekend to see this movie. It's one thing to rail Michael Moore because you don't like him but don't call his facts lies unless you have something to back that sh!t up with. Kudos! Michael Moore, keep em coming.

  EXCELLENT MOVIE, VERY INFORMATIVE AND SHOCKING!!!

  by TaiC

  This movie is not a partison movie by no means.. Its giving you the facts, and if you have ever worked for a company and been laid off, but your company was making $$$ major profits , you left scratching your head wondering why you were laid off.. Then THIS MOVIE WILL TELL YOU EXACTLY HOW THAT WORKS.. There is no disputing this movie, some people don't want to face reality of whats really going on in this country, but the truth is the light. I have seen 3 of Michael Moore movies, and if hind sight is 20/20 he has been SPOT on in his movies.. I am sure anyone that gives this movie a bad review , either works in the banking industry, a hyper partison republican, or just downright ignorant of the facts.. or all of the above. THIS IS MICHAEL MOORE BEST WORK!!

  EVERY AMERICAN SHOULD SEE THIS MOVIE!

  by moviejazzbuff

  What has happened in our country over the past eight years is truly frightening. This movie does an excellent job in laying out historically what happened to the working class in America over the past 30 or so years. The American working class have been hoodwinked and bamboozled into voting against their best interest. A prime example is health care. The very people who would benefit from a public option are against it. Partly do to the $111 million, and still counting, that has been spent to fool the American people into opposing health reform so that the rich can continue to get richer. We have a complete take over of terrestrial radio in America with 91 percent conservative (the elite & rich) propaganda. Factual information is no longer available via the mainstream media (corporations) and Moore is one of the few putting the heat on the system with this kind of movie. Americans wake up!!!!!

  Capitalism

  by tonya335

  Michael Moore has done it again. He has shown the light on the dark spots of america's capitilism. I've learned so much just watching this movie. Not in a million years would I have thought corporations would take out insurance policy on its employees and cash in the policy when the employee dies. This is a great movie for everyone to watch. I urge everyone to go and see it.

  A decent history lesson.

  by spamtrap

  I've been telling people much of what's contained in "Capitalism: A Love Story" for several years so the film did not have as much impact on me as it did on those who have never applied deep critical thought into the world of finance. In this film, Moore illustrates that GREED is the primary component of our capitalist financial system and that the wealthiest 1% of the USA basically run the whole country.... although they also only have 1% of the vote. Moore also gleefully ridicules ex president GW Bush as part of his history lesson, which is accurate, concise, and well written. Small pieces of history we're all at least vaguely familiar with are pulled together into a cohesive story line which clearly shows exactly why the US economy rose after World War II then dramatically crashed in 2008. Moore's final message is that capitalism needs to be replaced... not with socialism as the Republican propaganda machine states Obama is doing... but with democracy. He's right.

  Entertaining and informative as always

  by Chulisimo1

  As usual, with any Michael Moore movie, I was entertained and I learned a lot that made me a more informed citizen. This movie is shocking and inspiring. Shocking because you can't believe what is done in the name of greed and yet inspiring because there are some people who fight back and win. Everyone should see this, not just people who consider themselves liberal, but also those who call themselves conservatives. It's about taking back the country and making it a true democracy, or as close as it can possibly be because there is no such thing as a pure democracy. Go see it.

  Capitalism - A Love Story -- My Review

  by afisher333

  I highly recommend this movie. It shows clearly how most all the presidents since Jimmy Carter way back in the 1970s have been largely if not totally controlled by greedy big business and how much the initial wide spread of wealth in this nation has now been highly concentrated in the upper class. It also clearly shows how corporate greed, financial de-regulation, derivatives, and extensive stock market gambling have brought about the current economic recession. Finally, it does show how conmmon people can organize to (1) vote Obama as president, and (2) support strikers in Chicago who finally got Bank of America to repay their pensions.

  Worth the money which in todays 1% capitalism over 99% masocism is saying something

  by Dark_Chameleon

  This was another Micheal Moore masterpiece, love him or hate him, he has kept his views since being penniless and having his town dragged into depression and nevr clawed its way back out, his take on the bailouts and the greed of wallstreet, the power taken away from the people and abused by
  Goldman Saks and their cohorts is enlightening, the reson i dont give it a must go is that much of the movie we know already so unless you havnt watched intently the next of the bailouts and sick bribing in 'Sicko' you will be rivetted to this...remeber...IF HE WAS LYING WALL STREET WOULD BE SUEING HIM RIGHT NOW
