Review of Capitalism: A Love Story (2009) by Matt M — 05 Nov 2013

Michael Moore's wider take on capitalism, portrayed as a sinister way which takes money off the public good in order to make the richer richer and the poorer poorer is eccentric and still quite convincing.

Whether you agree with what he says or not, it's really hard to fault his entertaining structures, with open use of sense of humour and bleak realism, that make his viewpoints almost seductive. To take on this particular subject, Moore himself takes the original concept of his first feature documentary Roger and me where he examined the General Motors situation as a starting point to examine the American situation in a captivating portrayal that, admittedly is sometimes self indulgent, but nevertheless constantly interesting.
