I've never read a book or seen a movie from him, but I know he's quite against Mr Bush and this movie should show GW connection with OBL.

Are you going to watch it or just label it as "liberal bias movie" and throwing it away?

Michael MOore has more than proven his bias against Bush. A connection with OBL??? GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!! Watch it? If it is available in normal theatres, sure, but that is not often the case with movies that are "offbeat" like this one sounds to be. IOW, it sounds like a political statement by Mr. Moore and probably will not recieve widespread distribution(and not because it may be anti-Bush).

I don't think anyone has ever refuted a link between President Bush and the Bin Laden family. This is the same family that disowned OBL years ago. I wouldn't watch anything Michale Moore does that is political in nature. He's an idiot and proves it every time he opens his mouth.

Paolo, I'm usually an open-minded person, but you already provided enough information to get an idea about the purpose of this movie. I doubt that this movie will be objective. So why bother seeing it?

Are we supposed to be open minded to the point of volunteering to be criticized? Believe me, many of us have concerns about what is going on, but we don't need Michael Moore's angst-filled revisionism.

Cannes is the playground of the artsy elite who think that they are superior, but in reality are not relevant to anything.

Actually I was wrong. that's not a movie: is a documentary (the only one admitted to Cannes after "Bowling for Columbine", Oscar awarded).
He wrote a book that is a best seller, repat I don't know him but sounds amazing for an idiot. I would be scared if an idiot has such a large approval.
It's not a movie, it's a non-fiction film. What woud you do or think then if things showed there would prooved to be true?

Not likely, Paolo; Moore is infamous for delivering half-truths, innuendo and outright lies to "sell" his message.

I wouldn't waste the $$ to see it; I have better uses for my "disposable" income, small as it is.

I never cared for Michael Moore and I think he does a disservice to liberals.

If there is a trailer, imdb.com will usually have it available for viewing on Windows Media or Real Player. But they don't have one up for F911 yet.

This is weird -- the only listed filming location is Moore's hometown of Flint, MI. Does this mean he didn't go anywhere or talk to anyone outside of Flint? I think someone needs to update that info. I know he stretches the truth quite a bit. But does he really expect us to sit through his lies as well as bore ourselves with one more stupid documentary that takes place in Flint??? :roll: "Roger And Me" was enough for me.
