26 Jul 2004 Fahrenheit 911 Review
![[Review]](http://www.graxdomain.co.uk/images/site/Review01.jpg)
To help beat the boredom (see Day 4 below) I went to see Michael Moore's recent offering to the movie world, Fahrenheit 911. It's essentially a documentary about the events of 9/11 and all other bits of related stuff, including president George W. Bush's election and the war on Iraq.
This movie sets out to expose the details that the American government and Bush probably don't want you to see. It makes Bush look like the most selfish, incompetent president ever. It also shows things that will shock and/or anger you, like how the tragic 9/11 event could have been prevented but wasn't or why America really went to war with Iraq (you didn't actually believe it was for weapons of mass destruction like Bush said, did you?). Essentially this movie's message is not something that is not already know; that Bush's actions were all about greed, money, power, corruption and oil. But the amount of detail that this movie goes into is an eye opener.
This movie has everything a movie could ever need, comedy, action, real life explosions, tragedy, anger, tears, the lot. Very well done.
Is it worth paying £7 to go see a documentary at the cinema? Hell yeah. If anything, it'll make a nice change from all the mundane summer movies that normally come out this time of the year. If not at the cinema, then it's a definite renter.
GRAX RATING: 4/5
