    Definately not a regular awesome Moore doc. Seems like it was just thrown together and especially seems irrelevant because Bush has been in office for the past 8 years, but also is strange because we just elected Obama!

    in 2004 moore took to the road to stop bush getting qa second term in the white house by travelling america trying to get the so called slacker non voters to cast there vote for oponents against bush, qas we all know, it dident work, and bush got in, like his other. a bit diferen...( read more)t from other docs hes done, just folowing the events, but does bring 7up a few thoughts, the american public with there go yea atitude gives the inpression, they think there the only country, that votes in there leader, like its unique, well its not, my country does it, like many others, and t5he film misses its little films within a film, that farenheight 911 and bowling for columbine did very well, but also, we see moore angry here, on his crusade, it does get to him, and watch out for my fav group R.E.M standing up for the cause

    Michael Moore?s movie ?Slacker Uprising? which he donated to his fans as a 'freebie' is nothing more than a pity party for his defeat and Bush's victory in 2004. Moore desperately wants to a. re-live the 60?s revolution that he couldn?t be a part of or b. wants to bone hot colleg...( read more)e girls that he convinces to vote during his desperate campaign. Throughout the movie, Moore praises himself as much as possible, almost to make himself feel better about all the people who dislike him. I thought I didn't dislike him until I saw this.
    It?s a disaster of a movie and does not stick to the documentary type formula that worked so well earlier in his career. I?m sorry Moore, you were a great documentary maker back in the day, like the one about Michigan?s poor people who got kicked out of working at GM or whatever he was complaining about then, it was a lot more reasonable than the current Michael Moore. I see why South Park makes fun of him so much.
    WASTE OF BLOODY TIME!!!

    I love MM and all that he does for free thinkers all over the world, but this documentary was too little, too late. It was enderaing at times and sad at others, but in the end, we all know the outcome, and we should be ashamed of it.

    Michael Moore had some good things to say here and I appreciate that he gave it for free for a download but...I kinda felt like this was a Kevin Smith like thing without Kevin Smith. And we all NEED Kevin Smith!

    Movie was pretty good, I liked it because he more tried to make ppl to vote.

    thanks to michael moore for providing this movie for free on the web. it's interesting to watch and i hope even more americans vote in 2008 than in 2004, but movie-wise there's not much here.
