Michael Moore's Latest Doc Sticks it to 'the Rich' ... Sort Ofnew

Michael Moore Sells the Same Old Shtick in 'Capitalism'new

I wish that more of the contradictions of late capitalism had made it into this scattershot, lazy slice of agitprop, which recycles Moore's usual slice-and-dice job on corporations, while bobbing a curtsey to the current crisis.
