1. Saw it last night. I think it's Moore's best film
and it made me want to sharpen up my pitchfork and light my torches. It's excellent.

21. Saw it tonight... the theater clapped at the end!
I'm extremely proud of MM and this latest film.

I was particularly interested about the late discovery of FDR's "second bill of rights".

How did it take that film clip this long to be discovered?

the two banks adjacent to the theater!

12. LOL!
Like Mike said, keep the goobers & popcorn flowing and ixnay on the pitchfork concessions (paraphrased).

Now get in the shower and out the door!

13. It is a great film - go see it!
I saw it last weekend... I can't wait for it to come out on DVD to watch again with other friends who have not seen it. It is a must see and it will be time and money well spent.

16. +1
While most of us knew much of this, the footage is amazing. This is a definite own. Of course I own a copy of most of MM's films, so that may not be saying much.

:D

20. It's worth watching.
It's amusing and horrifying. Hopefully you have a good audience, that makes it more fun.

23. Went to see it a few days ago, it is excellent.
People were laughing and crying and cheering in the theater. It was an afternoon show on Tuesday, so it was not full, but there were more people there than I thought there would be for an afternoon show in the middle of the week, and considering this is a red state.

It should wake up a lot of people who were not familiar with some of the information in the movie.

I love it ~ and people literally clapped a few times ~

24. Saw it last week...wasn't as good as his previous ones
Sicko and F 9/11 were much better, but that's just IMHO.
