- Synopsis:
- Moore has "dug up some astonishing dirt" (Brian D. Johnson), 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. Capitalism: A Love Story is "The most American of films since the populist cinema of Frank Capra" (Dan Siegel), "a movie that manages shrewdly, even brilliantly, to capitalize on the populist anger that has been sweeping the nation" (Joe Morgenstern).

One of Michael Moore's Best - Capitalism: A Love Story review by PS
This was an excellent film with some fascinating footage which I had never seen before. It is a comprehensive, fascinating and amusing account of the history of capitalism in America since the mid-twentieth century. Moore presents an excellent argument against the laissez-faire free market system which is currently draining and debilitating most of the world, but he presents it in a very entertaining style. I was sorry when it finished and now want to see it again.
