Review of Bowling for Columbine (2002) by Nate W — 13 Dec 2009
Before that movie I was not a huge fan of Moore. While I liked his other documentaries I found him to be a bit of a sensationalist. Boy, was I wrong. This documentary is the best example of his work. Start here so you might take the rest of his documentaries with a grain of salt.
In "Bowling for Columbine" the way he portrays USA's greatest problem as being based on fear, is perfect! It offers the right amount of information, the right amount of provocating, the right amount of concern and the right amount of humour.
It a leads up to well served food for thought and a quintessential documentary!
