I hope I don’t need to do a big plot synopsis for Michael Moore’s “Fahrenheit 9/11″. There’s been enough controversy swirling around it these past few weeks/months about the way it portrays the Bush administration and everything they did (read: didn’t do) after September 11th regarding the terrorist threat. The movie is exactly what you would expect of it, and Brad (Who’s finally switched to Movable Type) does make a good point that it’s not exactly a documentary because of its biased view, but eh, that doesn’t bother me so much. It was still really entertaining, at least the first half was. The latter half of the movie sort of dragged on, and at the point where they’re showing the crying mother who’s lost her son in the war, it felt like Moore was just trying to beat the message into us. If the movie was over about halfway through it would’ve done the same job. Definitely recommended to everyone (Good luck finding a showing that’s not sold-out), and if you see White Chicks this weekend instead of this, I’m gonna hurt you.

Best part of the movie was when footage was shown of Britney Spears saying we should just trust our president to do what’s best for us. Someone in the audience shouted, “Shut the fuck up!” and everyone applauded. Great stuff.
