"Nope, haven't seen it yet, but I have seen his other movies, and just like all his others, he doesn't have many credible sources, just like the stuff you see on TV or "hear" from a friend, read on the internet, most people are sheep and take anything they hear or see as fact if they are TOLD it's a fact and never question it."
If anyone is actually interested in the sources of the movie's information, Moore's last book "Stupid White Men..." documents each and every source. Sources are always mainstream news articles that were generally passed over by the public. BBC. NY Times. It's meticulously documented, and that book presents much of the same material that's presented in the film. So yeah, nothing new... but sometimes it helps to see it all pulled together.
Was a great movie, I highly recommend it and agree completely with the recommendation that people try to ignore the press scuffle about this movie and withhold judgement until they see it themselves. If this movie doesn't affect you, check your pulse. There were errors in "Bowling for Columbine," but this is an entirely different kind of film... and facts are significantly more secure. You just have to be intelligent enough to separate fact from editorial content. That's generally not too hard to do.
