Thank god 9/11 didn't get anything. It really was NOT up to academy standards. Some good stuff, but seemed rushed into production. There are far better anti-bush 9/11 docu's out there.

I'd say Fahrenheit 9/11 had more truth in it. Although, it did give a greatly one-sided view of things and took a few quotes/scenes out of context.

The Passion of the Christ is true in that Jesus lived and was probably sold out to the high priests and was killed but that's about it.

apparently you haven't seen farenhype 9/11.

I've seen it 3 times. I own it now. The Extra Features are great. Esp. the one with the Swedish reporter going on house-to-house searches in Samarra. Shows how Abu Ghraib ended up with 70-90% of the detainees being 100% innocent.

Yep. That was only thing I really liked about F911. If the actual movie had been more like that, I would have thought it was quite good.

Had there been no narration by Moore it would have been better than it was. The implications he was trying to leave in people's minds is what many are criticizing.

i don't remember seeing any swedish reporter in farenhype 911

Fairenhiet 9/11 isnt a documentary, it's pure bull ****

So, Lila Lipscomb was making all of that up about losing a son in Iraq?

Those recruiters were a staged performance?


I question if you've even seen it.

Real people on film does equate to truth, unfortunately for you, conjur.

Just because they appeared on film doesn't automatically make them correct. Who knows what happened in the footage that was cut out or how many people were interviewed that contradicted Michael Moore's obvious message. We know the tricks that Michael Moore uses, and therefore one must take everything he presents with a huge clump of salt (not a single grain for this guy).

Yes I have, and spinning lies and bending truth to suit Michael's anti-Bush campaign does not make it good documentary.

before throwing any more lines from the movie, read this

that site is weak. I looked through the PDF, it doesn't offer proof to dispute anything. It's basically a guy saying "nuh unh" to every one of Moore's claims.

Except for the hundreds of sources cited throughout...
