Capitalism: A Love Story (Michael Moore, 2009)

CapitalismThe irony of Moore’s latest documentary-cum-polemic is that, in our brave new world of Glenn Beck-style paranoia, anger, and histrionics masquerading as political discourse, Moore’s sarcastic mugging seems very nearly quaint. For those who are raving mad at the Right, Wall Street, and everything else that smacks of big business and its profits-ahead-of-everything mentality, the film may feel almost too restrained, even though it pulls no punches in arguing that capitalism may very well be evil.
