If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Saw this documentary at a college English class. It is about the closure of a General Motors (GM) plant at Flint, Michigan, which resulted in the loss of 30,000 jobs. Therefore, filmmaker Michael Moore tries to get an interview with and confront GM CEO Roger Smith.The film takes a look at the aftermath of the layoffs and the many lives it effects, and the quest in holding employers accountable. I remember one such scene where a lady had to resort to go about other means in getting food, like skinning a rabbit, which startled just about the class watching.Some eyeopening and educational stuff here.Grade B

I first heard of this documentary when it was praised by Chicago legendary film critics, Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel on their television show. This documentary shows how General Motors built and destroyed Flint, Michigan. The factories closed and unemployment soared as thousands became jobless. Michael Moore is a rebel with a cause. He wants justice and fairness. The fat cats like Roger Smith, Chairman of General Motors, is the Roger in the film. Moore has watched his hometown of Flint, Michigan into a ghost town with abandoned houses and closed businesses. Moore wanted answers from Roger about how he could allow this happen to Flint. It is obvious that Roger Smith and the other fat cats have no conscience about closing factories and laying off thousands of employees.

The best documentary i have viewed. This is a powerful indictment of American Corporate greed and the results to the blue collar worker. Who pay the price by loosing there job with the only trade they knew how to do since joining the workforce. Yes, like the one user mentioned, Govt. has something to do with the way companies function with there laws, tax's, and tariffs. But you can't tell me that these rich companies with allot of political power in Govt. Can't just stand up and say, No. Your hurting our company with these laws. But why would they care. All Ceo's and upper management have there golden parachutes. You can say what you want about all of Moore's movies, but if they were really so full of crap like so many believe, Where are all the lawsuits. There's none, because for the most part he's telling the truth. People who hate Moore are the same, Well off Middle and or Upper class, with no worries. You won't find too many poor people or people who lost there only job they know how to do, calling Moore a fraud and bum. Because they know the truth of what greed does. The Gordon Gecko's of the world still exist. And thats a damn shame.

I am not a fan of Moore's documentary, Bowling for ... was for me a quite interesting exercise not only proposed a more intense pace for the film but also posited a new position, I found Fahrenheit exaggerated and overstated; I found Sicko simply Moore.But the summary of all the opinions that are generated in me after seeing his "movies" are summarized in Roger and me. Undoubtedly the first Moore's documentary is truly a jewel within the genre. His research, this capability that has to unite and launch facts and conclusions, made his film becomes a product that, while it is far from the origins of the theory of a documentary, it is a good example of make a blockbuster dress of documentary.I don't want to talk much about information management in the film because it seems to me risky to talk about a subject that I'm not know, but what is certain is that the way he presents the facts is more objective and less influenced, although it is the most close to its field staff, perhaps Moore sought to have a more solid principles which results in a documentary well documented and well structured.While the subject does not have the significance of their ensuing years if it is the perfect example which set the pace for what will become every of his works. Roger and me did well in all aspects, not ask more, is a good documentary from a social theme with personal impact, Moore is not intended to save the world or make it a better place, that is working for each one... There is the reflection; Who dares to say that this did not happen? It is not the way to kill rabbits?
