In the screening of this movie, there was a recorded message from Michael Moore in which he said that "I made this film like it were my last one. I thought to myself,'if I had to make one last film, what would I include in it?'"
If it was destined to be his last film, it...( read more)

Muckraker Michael Moore examines the mortgage crisis, the financial bailout, and the growing gap between the rich and the pure [sic], and concludes that capitalism is pure evil. Manipulative socialist propaganda that is intermittently entertaining and exposes some concrete inju...( read more)

It goes without saying that Michael Moore is a lightning rod of criticism. He's made a career on his own brand of documentaries - completely bias sermons that are often accused of broken logic and showboating. "Capitalism: A Love Story" is perhaps his most accessible film, howeve...( read more)

What would a Michael Moore film be like without a slanted point of view? Without a one-sided dialogue that tells the story primarily from one perspective? You'd have a PBS documentary, I imagine. Well this is not the kind of film you watch if you want a "fair and balanced" take o...( read more)

I generally agree with Moore's politics and his challenging of authority. I couldn't help but be carried along by his message. He inspires action through the subjects he interviews. Michael Moore movies are rare film going experiences that always get people in the audience fee...( read more)

In his usual style, Michael Moore once more does not falter. 100% political and 100% directed in a way appealing mostly to Americans, it's good but it's not Bowling for Columbine. And now I think that whatever he tries in years to follow, he can never film something bigger than t...( read more)

This film may not be the first exploration of the causes and effects of the global financial crisis, but it's probably the first to get cinema release. And the reason for that is the name Michael Moore.
Capitalism: A Love Story is a mostly engaging and interesting exploration ...( read more) -

Although this guy is a great director and did and does lots of good documentaries he has and we also had to admit that he is v...( read more)
Critic Reviews
In "Capitalism: A Love Story," Michael Moore casts a fiery eye at the U.S. financial system - a rich and appalling subject at the moment - and comes, alas, to the usual loopy conclusion full review
With Capitalism: A Love Story, Michael Moore delivers his liveliest, most radical film to date. full review
The film's title is never explained. What does Moore mean? Maybe it's that capitalism means never having to say you're sorry. full review
Even if you don't agree with the answers that Michael Moore suggests, I think you should see this movie. full review
Moore relates a half-century of fraud in singsong narration that makes him seem like Mister Rogers with 200 extra pounds and a Che Guevara T-shirt instead of a cardigan. But what a figure he cuts. full review
Mr. Moore aims to proselytize his friends and demonize his enemies. His movie hits both marks. full review
Moore sees our abusive relationship with capitalism as a growing plague. His movie, a genuine and welcome rabble-rouser, lays out the history of how democracy got corrupted. full review
Capitalism is as entertaining as Roger & Me, and its critique skewers both major political parties, calling into question the economic policies of Bill Clinton as well as Ronald Reagan. full review
Here is busted logic, self-contradiction, tasteless jokes and ideas that are demonstrably, empirically wrong. full review
