10/10
Heart-wrenchingly hilarious
14 February 2016
This film somehow manages to tear deeply into painful truths about the US in regard to unjust domestic policies with our criminal justice system, our exploitative student loaning process, and our long history with racism, yet somehow Moore manages to leave the viewer feeling optimistic. Moore's growth as a filmmaker is so evident here. The film was smooth, pointed, and had just the right balance of humor and feeling. It hurt, but I found myself belly laughing many times.

I left feeling cheated by a country I have more optimism in than when I entered the theater. How is that possible? Astounding movie.

The R-rating is a sham! There is far worse content in PG-13 these days.
