Non-partisan, F9/11 review
There are some minor spoilers, but it's a review of the actual FILM, not the HYPE.

"There have been, individually, more brilliant politicians than George W. Bush. All of ‘em, probably. But there has never been an administration that operated with such magnificent, single-minded, Teflon ruthlessness. One recalls Matt Hooper describing the Great White in JAWS. They are a perfect political machine. All they do is screw up, spin, and keep screwing up so that the public can’t stay fixed on one misdeed, with the press playing the part of Murray Hamilton, no disrespect to the deceased intended."

"From the conflict’s disingenuous build-up to the cowing of congressional Democrats to the sloppily planned invasion, and, finally, to a heartbreakingly intimate glimpse of the human toll, Moore unleashes an incendiary condemnation of Bush’s arrogant, self-serving motives for putting the country’s soldiers at risk."

"Still, for all the hatred and further divisiveness it’s likely to incite, FARENHEIT 9/11 is absolutely the film America deserves in 2004. It’s going to be a great summer."

1. Someone here posted just the other day a positive review from FOX
I don't know if it was a movie critic or a FOX anchor but I remember seeing a post with the subject FOX News gives thumbs up to Farenheit 9/11 or something to that effect.
