If other countries can provide their people with universal health care, why can't we? If we can't, who are we?

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Though the focus occasionally strays, the film emerges as a fascinating exploration and powerful indictment of a pressing national problem. This is Moore's biggest, best and most impassioned work.

Andrew Sarris, New York Observer
One may quibble with Mr. Moore's anecdotal oversimplifications and his xenophilic fantasies, but he has struck a socio-psychic nerve in the body politic, generating a feeling of outrage that seems to be reverberating in every theater.

This is a movie to see in a theater. It'a group experience. All through the show you'll hear people laughing, crying, muttering, cheering, sighing, swearing, and gasping. And at the end, chances are they'll be on their feet applauding.

Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Sicko is worth seeing -- as long as the big grain of salt needed for it is put on more than just the popcorn.
