This film portrayed a very comedic parody of not only Michael Moore, but of terrorists as well. It was a feel-good, patriotic movie for those of us who still believe in America!

I didn't see this movie, the preview was all I needed to see. Oh, and Harry S, Michael Moore is NOT was is wrong with America, it is the neocon administration who have been running this country for the past 8 years that is worng with America!!! January 20th can't come soon enough for me, GO Obama!!!!

I think that Zucker's films have been OK, and this one's again OK. I find the reaction of those with liberal leanings and empty heads to be entertaining though. Hey, if you can't take a joke, it must have hit too close to home. Take that weenies.

I would like to respond to the person who admitted they hadn't seen the movie yet, but decided that anyone who gave the movie a bad rating had not seen the movie either. You must tell me how you came to this conclusion. However, I did see the movie and can report that even in one of the reddest of the red states, the movie audiennce was so stunned there was only a few half-hearted snickers. I think that is the best indication of how good a this "comedy" was.

is disappointed that even a few people could possible be so stupid to like this movie
Jarrod B. gave it a10:
This movie is funny because it is true. It is a bit much at times, but overall very funny. The funniest part is that people could actually be offended by this movie.
Chalotte G. gave it a0:
A waste of money....not even remotely funny. Would've liked to seen a counterpoint to Michael Moore's humor.
