A fat stupid idiot rallies his army of fat stupid idiots to express their ignorance through a senseless vote. Michael Moore loves himself sooo much. A good study on ego and demagoguery. I'm still giving it a 0 though and I turned it off when Mikey busted out the ol' enlistment forms(!!!) Dude needs a new gag.

I'm a fan of Moore's other films, and I applaud him for making this one free, but the main point of the movie gets old 30 minutes into it. Righties will hate this because it's Michael Moore. Lefties will hate this because they'll remember how close they were to winning 2004. It'll be a decent documentary to convince high schoolers how important their vote is, I guess, but they won't be thoroughly entertained.

Rarely does a film truly make my skin crawl. What exactly is the point of this other than inflate Moore's already overinflated ego. Although I enjoyed his other work in some form or other and definitely am not a hater, he really drops the ball with this film. It's basically a promo campaign for himself as future president of the US, with rarely any other shots than Moore himself and his adoring public clapping and almost fainting in excitment. This movie's free and I feel I've overpaid...

Repetitive. The part with Roseanne is funny but the rest is not particularly interesting (although I hadn't heard about the Kent State massacre before watching this, so that was also worthwhile). Very cool that he made this film freely available online though.

It was free, which is a good thing considering it's so bad you shouldn't have to pay money to watch it. It felt less like him trying to get people to vote and more like him saying, "Look how much Republicans fear/dislike/tread on me." I don't have a problem with Michael Moore personally, I just think this movie was self-indulgence at it's peak.

Michael Moore proves creating a powerful attempt and observing it, is not enough to make a good documentary.

Should be called Michael Moore's Michael Moore. Pretty much his most self agrandising film but with an important message, go and vote, which I wholly support. Wish it had had a happier ending too. Anyway, bit pointless to watch as it's not really about anything other than the film maker. Mike, you make some damned fine documentaries even if they are biased and feature you too much, but you have to remember that you point the camera the other way around...

So self indulgent. I can't help but laugh at all these failures.

Decent. Since it's a documentary on what he did to raise voters off their asses, don't expect it to be anything more. It's against Bush and republicans, but who isn't these days. The Daily Show is doing a better job at it. With this film he nailed the right way of reaching slackers - free dvdrips online. Didn't care for the music.

Tedious, over long self-congratulatory hand clapping.

OK Michael, I "get" it. I should vote.
