SiCKO!

We saw Michael Moore's SiCKO the weekend it came out and have to say it is his best film to date, a bold and uncompromising look at the American health care system. Moore has much less of a screen presence this time out, spending the first half of the film mostly off camera in narration only. By the time he does show up you are so disgusted with American health care that even if you don't care for Moore, you want to hear what he has to say.

Moore has been trashed repeatedly in recent years for his films as expected on Fox, but also unexpectedly. on CNN. Here is Moore's recent appearance on CNN where he is ripping Wolf Blitzer a new one. Actually, more like a dozen new ones, as Blitzer is spanked by Moore for current and past discretions.
