Director Michael Moore
Rated M
Score 6/6

Moore plays the role of ‘invader’, visiting a host of nations including Italy, France, Germany and Tunisia to commandeer policies and ideas that will improve prospects in America. What he finds is that the solutions to America’s most entrenched problems already exist in the world—they’re just waiting to be captured.

Okay, I will put this one on the I probably should have watched it sooner list. I’m kind of familiar with Michael Moore’s work, I’ve seen some of his other documentaries, TV series and even read some of his work to. I got the overall impression that he is a bit of a crackpot, but the kind that you need to listen to and not ignore, I mean it takes somebody who is right combination of cracked and brave to hold a mirror up to parts of society like he does.

The overall concept of Where to Invade Next is brilliant. Learning other countries best practices of certain things that really needs to be done (I suppose Members of Parliament do go on fact finding missions but the people might not always see the benefits of these fact-finding missions. I suppose these fact-finding missions just need to be re-branded). Moore managed to find the right balance between to being very entertaining, you just have to look to when he was having lunch with children in France.
You really should take the time to watch this documentary.
