  • Reviews

    "Michael Moore turns in one of his best films with Capitalism: A Love Story... That said, there’s still plenty here to annoy right-wingers, as well as those who, however much they agree with Moore’s politics, just can’t stomach his oversimplification, on-the-nose sentimentality and goofball japery."—Leslie Felperin, Variety

    "Capitalism: A Love Story does not quite measure up to Moore's Sicko in its cumulative power, and it is unlikely to equal Fahrenheit 9/11 in political impact. In many ways, though, this is Moore's magnum opus: the grandest statement of his career-long belief that big business is screwing the hard-working little guy while government connives in the atrocity."—Mary Corliss, TIME Magazinehttp://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1920771,00.html

    "I am going to use that position to try to communicate not just to the church of the left but to the average, everyday American who wants to go see a good movie, and maybe gets something out of it at the same time."—Michael Moorehttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/06/michael-moore-premieres-i_n_278343.html
