Fahrenheit 9/11 is a documentary film about the Bush administration's reaction to the events of the September 11th tragedy. In standard Micheal Moore fashion, he becomes a pain in the ass to some prominent public figures. The film is about the connection of President George W. Bush, his father, and their friends to the Saudi family of Osama bin Laden. When these events, that occurred over time, are packaged together a clear picture of greed and power come to the forefront.
Regardless, of your political affiliation, this is a must see film. Not for its cinematic qualities, it's low budget. But, for its content. It exposes one of the better plots. Go for the content, the facts are there. We were lied to! It's ongoing!
I give it 5 out of 5 Pinocchios:
