Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring the Norway segment, it is stated that mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik, who was responsible for several terrorist attacks in 2011 that killed 77 Norwegians, was sentenced to a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 21 years in prison. It is also mentioned that 21 years imprisonment is the maximum penalty in Norway, regardless of how many casualties there were. Although this is true, it should be added that Breivik was specifically sentenced to containment. Containment or preventive detention means that although the initial sentence is 21 years, the imprisonment can be extended indefinitely, as long as the convict is considered a danger to society, so in practice this probably means life imprisonment.
- GoofsWhen listing what the French get extra for their tax money besides basic services, on screen text states 4 weeks paid vacation. The French have a minimum of 5 weeks paid vacation and 11 legal holidays a year.
- Quotes
Michael Moore: I am an American. I live in a great country, that was born in genocide and built on the backs of slaves.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of the credits, we see a woman scaling a flagpole and cutting down a Confederate Battle Flag, while we hear a pair of men (presumably some sort of law-enforcement officers) requesting that she stop. Accompanying that scene are the words of Moore's battle cry: "Hammer. Chisel. Down."

Featured review
Another excellent film by Michael Moore.
The footage from the school cafeteria in France was just embarrassing. The muck fed to children in Canada - by both schools AND many halfwit substandard parents - is disgusting :(
Over-sweetened, unhealthy food is not a good investment...our shortsighted authorities prefer corporate profits now, which only leads to expensive medical care later.
As the French chef remarks looking at photos of north American school lunches: "that is not food...your poor children".
As for sitting in a civilized manner during meals...NOT the norm in this backward society.
The social attitudes & policies in all the countries profiled in this film are not only sophisticated but also sensible, and explain why the citizens in those countries are so much smarter than here.
Wake up USA and Canada! ... Rampant greed & individualism, not giving a F*** about your fellow citizens , i.e. the so-called 'american dream' is getting us nowhere.
Playing nice with others results in MORE wealth and happiness, not less. (Duh!)
