The movie consists of three main body points according to me. The first main point is president Bush and his father the former presidents business relationship with the Bin Laden family and other Saudi businessmen and their mutual affairs and economical interests in the oil and weapon industry. The second main point is when he describes the terror attack towards the World Trade Centre on September 11 2001 and how the government reacted on the attack. The third main point is about the war in Iraq, showing how the Bush administration convinced the American people to send the young and poor to fight a war based on a lie. Moore also interviews and accompanies American soldiers during their missions down in Iraq.
All the main points are linked together with movie clips of Bush and other government officials in a satirical way, clips showing how the government is keeping the people in fear by lowering and raising the terroist alert back and forth making them accept a bill (The U.S. Patriot Act.) which violates the human rights for example.
The conclusion in this movie that I think Michael Moore wants us draw is that people need to think, they shouldn’t just do as everybody else does, he wants people to analyse and realize that the world is not perfect and in this case Bush is far from perfect.
2. I do not in anyway disagree in Moores line of thinking when it’s about the movie, his objective with this movie was to make a documentary film that would persuade the wievers to believe that president Bush is a crook and not suitable to be a president after seeing the movie. I would say that he has managed to create that with this movie, but I also believe that Moore can be wrong in several matters or at least have exaggerated them. But on the other hand why wouldn’t he since he’s anti Bush, anti war and is trying to spread that propaganda. People might also find him unjust since he doesn’t let the people he’s criticizing defend their selves.
3. To sum up the film, I would like to say that it’s very good. Moore uses a very advanced investigating type of journalism you can just wonder how many different archives him and his team have been in, but the movie is far from boring instead it has got a humoristic and satirical touch. The movie is also very tragically especially during the part when World Trade Centre is attacked, that clip is very dramatic and touching since it’s all black on the screen we can only hear the crash and the people and then we see all the devastated people staring up at the sky.
