Capitalism: A Love Story = Good, but exhausting


I always enjoy Moore's stuff, but this one, while it started typical of Moore's style, went on way too long with the Wall Street/bailout story, in my humble opinion.
I know it's the key point in this documentary, but to me, it just on and on, too l-o-n-g. And alot of similar stuff to his earlier 'Roger and Me', a great one!
But, as usual, Moore does make his points well, and another rather successful look-see at America.
Love it, or leave it?

Anything based on the corruption of the top politicians and big business is tiring to me. No matter how much the special interest groups bend the American people over and have their way with us, there is nothing we can do but take it and cry "we'll vote you out." Whereby we vote for the other party which is just as corrupt at the ones we voted out.

Good point.
I'm actually in Canada but it works the same up here, except we're not as big so not as many films, dealing on those subjects.
But our 1-hour documentaries are very similar and hit hard against the same politicians and big business!
