Sicko

[Guest sharpie]

Saw this Monday night in order to sit in heavy-duty air conditioning.

Very effective and controlled for its first half -- Moore doesn't appear til well into the movie -- with some devastating documentary footage and some great use of the Nixon tapes where the genesis of our current medical system springs from. The latter half, where he goes to Canada, England, France and Cuba gets pretty repetitive and heavy-handed.

Liked it , not great but at it's best when dealing with regular Americans that had medical insurance and got screwed by their carrier, thought the stuff in Cuba was very staged, I know plenty of people in Britain that rail against the NHS and the system in Ireland is the same and people complain all the time about it. Having dealt with both systems I would take the system here over what most of the rest of the world has, but I have good insurance so obviously that makes all the difference.


Not long after watching the movie Saturday night I was Chanel surfing and came across a HUMANNA TV late night rip off.

It's not like Moore's going to do or say anything that will shock me. We know his POV and his style.

So the least he could do was entertain me. I didn't think this did that.
