Summary
:
Moore 'skewers both major political parties' for selling out the millions of people devastated by loss of homes and jobs to the interests of fat cat capitalists. Moore has 'dug up some astonishing dirt', stories told in the faces of the foreclosed and evicted, in the food stamps received by hungry airline pilots, and in the courage of fired factory workers who refuse to go quietly. But more than a cry of despair, Moore's film raises the possibility of hope.
