I watched this movie a few days ago and I can't stop thinking about it.

Sicko is Michael Moore's newest movie which takes a look at health care in America. Through the movie he managed to make me cry atleast two times.

The basic facts: the US has the highest infant mortality rate of western countries aswell as the lowest life-expectancy. The US also spends more on health care per capita than any other country in the world - alot more.

The movie even recieved a great review from Foxnews.

Filmmaker Michael Moore's brilliant and uplifting new documentary, "Sicko," deals with the failings of the U.S. healthcare system, both real and perceived. But this time around, the controversial documentarian seems to be letting the subject matter do the talking, and in the process shows a new maturity.


I always thought that health care reform in America was an unrealistic pipe-dream. Yet this film has me wondering...

I urge you all to see it next time you're in a somber mood. You must really be a cold-hearted bastard not to be affected by this film.

NP, anyone you should also download Bill Maher for the 14th of May this year (filename on bittorrent should include the date), where he has a prolonged interview with Michael Moore about Sicko.
