Bowling for Columbine
: Whether it's writing about the Bush coup or corporate irresponsibility, Michael Moore always tries to find something to investigate. This time, he focuses on gun control and the NRA. This movie is both funny and sad, leaving you cracking up at certain points but leaving the audience silent with tears in their eyes as you see victims of guns and their families speak. This movie really makes you think about gun control laws and the irresponsibilty and coldness of the NRA's president, Charlton Heston. Do not miss this movie!
This is not a documentary. Moore should be ashamed for profiting off of this tragedy.
All that I can really say is wow. Michael Moore is brilliant. The movie was sad, painful, and was even funny and humorous. I was one of those firm believers in our 2nd amendment but Michael Moore gave me a new perspective and now I'm not so sure that it's good for our country. If you only see one movie this year make it this one. Sadly, my words just cannot do justice for the praise this movie deserves.
I watched the video, it was funny but some things did not seem right. I searched and found www.bowlingfortruth.com very informative.
Latest First-Class entry in Michael Moore's documentary style of filmmaking, "Bowling for Columbine" is alternately funny, touching, shocking and heart-rending. A strong anti-gun, anti-media frenzy film, it links the shootings at Columbine High School with perceived flaws in American society regarding attitudes toward guns and gun control. Sure to be a contoversial film, it is on a par with Moore's earlier film, "Roger and Me', and ironically has a segment in Moore's home town of Flint, Michigan, when a 6th grader is tragically shot by a classmate. Fans of Charlton Heston may not like Moore's low key, but direct interview! A must see.
