This movie is a good laugh if, like most people, you live outside the G8. It is basically a parade of morbidly obese Americans complaining that their swimming pool is the wrong temperature.
Funniest bit is where a man who is so fat he has a double chin on the back of his neck complains that he has to use food stamps. (That's basically free food).
Another is where morbidly obese Michael Moore manages to get up 5 steps to the GM building before, mercifully for him, being stopped by 3 over-weight cops.
In one sequence we see a 5 or 6 bedroomed house with a swimming pool that has been repossessed. Well I'm 43 years old and I have never once lived in a property with a swimming pool much less owned one so why am I being asked to feel sympathy for these people? And the other bunch who winge about their plight on a cell phone from the comfort of a gigantic 4x4. Yes they are morbidly obese too. Are these victims or bad guys? Anyone outside America surely wouldn't have a clue.
There's more & more of this stuff in the movie which is the latest in Michael Moore's hilarious series that seems to try to convince Americans that they are the victims of their own success.
It doesn't matter how corrupt you want to make out your politicians are, you're all richer than everyone else and that, after all, is what counts.
