Sicko
Dir: Michael Moore | USA | 2007 | 123mins
Documentary provocateur Michael Moore returns and, as usual, he's mad. America is the richest country on earth and yet their global position in healthcare puts them at number 38 on the list – just above Slovenia . The words "health care" and "comedy" aren't usually found in the same sentence, but in Sicko they go together hand in (rubber) glove. Amongst anecdotal horror stories, Moore examines the divide between rich and poor and the state of health care in America with a unique and thoroughly entertaining perspective. As the New York Times review of the film says, "Open wide and say shame."
