Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004)

EW's GRADE
B+

Details Release Date: Jun 25, 2004; Rated: R; Length: 116 Minutes; Genre: Documentary; With: Michael Moore; Distributors: Fellowship Adventure, IFC Films and Lions Gate Films; More

Dazzlingly assembled, at once reckless and insightful, Michael Moore's fight-the-power documentary filters the actions of the Bush administration through a nose-thumbing outrage that might have been irresponsible if Moore's words weren't girded by images that spoke 1,000 more. As analysis, the movie is a smash-and-grab polemic, but it's highly resonant Bush-bashing, since the President does most of the work for it.
