Fahrenheit 9/11 Reviews |
After his impromptu anti-Bush speech while collecting his Oscar for Bowling For Columbine ("Shame on you, Mr Bush! Shame on you!"), Michael Moore made a lot of enemies, both in Hollywood and among Bush supporters everywhere. Happily, the ensuing death threats and hate campaigns don't seem to have fazed him at all, as his new film sets its sights on Bush and his cronies and then opens fire with both barrels. [read review] 
--Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)
But overall, FAHRENHEIT 9/11 seems like a growth for Moore with a lot less emphasis on himself, a lot less emphasis on set-ups, prodding tactics and eye-catching video, and a lot more emphasis on facts, figures, quotes and actual footage from real eventsthat help back his case. [read review] 9/10
--'JoBlo' (JoBlo.com)
As a documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11 is a meandering, unfocused and largely unbalanced piece of non-fiction filmmaking. However, as one patriot’s passionate, wide-ranging soliloquy to America, the film is a brutally effective prayer for uncensored truth andchange. [read review] 
--Christopher Monfette (MovieWeb)
Filmmaker Michael Moore tends to make his points with a sledgehammer, and his anti-Bush administration documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" is no exception. But this time around he uses more delicate instruments as well, and what emerges is a powerful film. [read review]
--Paul Clinton (CNN Showbiz)
Having warmed up with ‘Bowling for Columbine’, Michael Moore pushes the envelope even further with evidence that, while naturally presented to support his opinion, is powerful enough to make us think; no matter what may think of Moore personally. [read review] 
--Derek May (MovieWeb)
Still, if Moore's goal was to discredit and undermine Bush, he's succeeded; as a piece of propaganda, the movie excels. But the film's rambling nature prevents it from becoming the riveting piece of work Moore surely intended it to be. [read review] 
--David Nusair (Reel Film Reviews)
Fahrenheit 9/11 lacks the power to impact the huge block of undecided voters, and it is hubris on the parts of the filmmakers and distributors (both past and present) to believe such a thing. [read review]
--James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
More agit-prop than documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11 is Michael Moore's best and worst film, managing to entertain even as it infuriates, intrigue even as it repulses, gratify even as it annoys. [read review]
--Ed Owens (CineScene)
What I look for in a Moore film is not an objective study, but passionate commitment, honest outrage and biting sarcasm. In this case, two outta three ain’t bad. [read review] 74/100
--Dan Jardine (Apollo Guide)
You know it is a truly sad time when a filmmaker can throw a bunch of his own ideas together, call them factual, and convince millions of people to believe it. [read review] 
--Lee Chase IV (CultureDose.net)
Moore is not just a traditional muckracker, but a crusading artist -- like Dickens, Solzhenitsyn and Springsteen -- and has become a signal artist of our time. [read review]
--Andrew O'Hehir (Salon)
It's an ambitious piece of work -- an attempt at a comprehensive critique of the Bush administration, focusing particularly on the so-called "war on terror." [read review]
--Chris Dashiell (CineScene)
Moore's latest has some powerful images that are invariably overwhelmed by his jokey, faux-populist self-righteousness. [read review]
--Stephanie Zacharek (Salon)
An infuriating, compelling, and incredibly moving tearjerker that should not be missed. [read review] A
--Craig Younkin (Lee's Movie Info)
So it's an obnoxious film, to be sure, but it's also slick and engrossing. [read review] B
--Eric D. Snider (EricDSnider.com)
...it's a bloated, biased, and brilliant piece of political filmmaking. [read review]
--Jamie Russell (BBC Films)
