I found "Manufacturing Dissent" to be interesting because Michael Moore, the source of high grossing, award-winning documentaries, now becomes the subject of one. It is ironic that this documentary exposes the fact that Moore is not really a documentary filmmaker. He makes movies that only look like documentaries. His films are similar to "The Blair Witch Project," only political in nature.

First of all, I used to love Moore's films, and I'm pretty sure my political leanings echo those of Moore in some ways (I'm moderate in American politcs), but I just don't think you can argue with his techniques.

I started beginning to feel a bit wary about Moore after watching Fahrenheit 9/11. By then I had taken some courses on film theory and even though I had a hard time getting over the fact that my enemy's (George Bush) enemy wasn't necessarily my friend, I started noticing his editing, began reading up on his 'facts' and exposed myself to his critics to see what they were saying.

I still believe there is a scathing and relevant documentary to be made about George Bush, I just don't Moore has made it yet. Or will make it.

What disturbs me is his disregard for facts, and that the truth is adjustable so long as it gets the desired results: Bush out of office.

Hell, I want that too. But not at the expense of the truth.

I watched FahrenHYPE 9/11 which I absolutely HATED. While it had a few interesting interviews rebuking Moore from former interviewees, it employed the exact same techniques as Moore but with much less subtlety and an awkward mimicking of his methods.

Then this film comes along, and I see people here say it's biased and right wing, so I'm bracing myself for another propaganda hatchet job from the right...

But the thing is, the movie actually poses a bunch of good questions about his methodology. Even if we disregard all the people who worked with him who opine, we still get a disturbing image of a manipulative, seriously delusional guy who doesn't mind twisting, or in some cases lying, to get the job done.

It's not a political issue. It shouldn't be. It's about facts. And fact is Moore does lie and manipulate. Fact is his films are not reliable sources of opinion.

Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of truth in his movies too, but if just one percent is a lie, then it's all lies. Then there's no credibility.

And I don't want a guy like that championing the stuff I believe in. I don't want it to be a choice between Ann Coulter and Michael Moore.

хич няма и да се заинтересувам от филмчето ти против Майкъл Мур. Отколе евреите плащат за всякакви пошлости срещу него.

Да вземеш Оскар въпреки съпротивата на еврейското лоби е атестат за качеството на филма.
