I saw it in high school, didn't know nothin' bout politics. There was so much buzz around this movie, it was stupid. It was released when a lot of the country still supported Bush, so Michael Moore's Bush bashing was controversial. The way Bush was portrared in the clips is no...( read more)

Moore may have some of the most biased documentaries that's ever been made but with this film, he shared the same opinion of the Bush administration with 95% of the world's population. It's because of that and the lengthy research that this guy does with every documentry, that I ...( read more)

I love some of the American reviews on this very page; "Michael Moore is an idiot. You might not like Bush, but you respect him because of the office he holds" That was written a couple of year ago now, when W was still in office but it goes to show the ridiculous and frightenin...( read more)

In the end, if I recall correctly, there's just not enough meat on this bone for it to stand up to its many challengers.
Though I haven't seen it since it was in theatres - now that the Bush "legacy" is completely established, I wouldn't mind re-evaluating it - I remember thin...( read more) -

Whether you love or hate Michael Moore, this is still a well-made documentary. There's a lot of information and it's clear that Moore has done his research.
Back when this movie came out I was more supportive of Bush, as a lot of the claims in this movie (The weapons of mass de...( read more) -

Just like Bowling for Columbine, this is an amazing documentary. Unfortunatly it recieved some very mixed reviews up on it's realise. Moore quite bravely stuck his head up a little too high with this film, attacking Bush at a time when he was still pretty popular amongst the Am...( read more)

The first Michael Moore film I have ever watched. I have resisted all of his films, because I feel that they would be very unbalanced. Of course, this is VERY ANTI-BUSH and somewhat ANTI-Repblican, but there is plenty of FACTUAL information here to take in, absorb and form YOUR O...( read more)
Critic Reviews
The most focused work of the director's career. full review
The documentary's scathing attack on the war in Iraq and George W. Bush's presidency is informative, provocative, frightening, compelling, funny, manipulative and, most of all, entertaining. full review
Fahrenheit 9/11 is not a documentary for the ages, it is an act of counterpropaganda that has a boorish, bullying force. It is, all in all, a legitimate abuse of power. full review
Not just a scathing indictment against the President... but a deeply patriotic movie which reminds us of the principal tenets which makes a true democracy so great. full review
It is worth seeing, debating and thinking about, regardless of your political allegiances. full review
The film doesn't go for satirical humor the way Moore's Roger & Me and Bowling for Columbine did. Moore's narration is still often sarcastic, but frequently he lets his footage speak for itself. full review

November 1, 2007Hey, I liked it and since I'm how many years late in watching it it's pretty obvious that Bush and his "administrative cronies" has practically run this country into the ground. The only job he did was make the rich richer and the poor poorer and drag us into a war that we can't seem to get out of. God help this country and the future.
