I realize that a lot of this documentary was trying too hard at times to dramatize what was happening in order to keep an audience entertained. However, the questions brought up about why Americans are so trigger happy compared to other countries really stick with people because those are the questions that are still unanswered.

Despite the way that Michael Moore brashly manipulates fact and editing to create sensationalist moments in his documentaries, Bowling for Columbine is his best work. The values and sentiments that Moore puts forth are clearly close to his heart and he raises a lot of good and thought-provoking questions.

Sure, it's slanted in the way only Michael Moore can spin things, but it's still full of wit, wisdom and some downright scary implications. Just don't bring it to the next NRA meeting, for your own safety.

I'm still not sure about all the facts in this documentary. But, the premise is a good one. It's highly entertaining and eye-opening. It's a wonder why there aren't more people like Michael Moore in the U.S.

"Bowling for Columbine" reaffirmed what I already felt. Far too long of a documentary, it was still very entertaining...well, not like, Hey, lots of fun, alright! But more like, hey, these are the issues, let's deal with them instead of talk around them. Michael Moore (though not my favorite human being alive) has issued a great deal of time and effort in getting his message across to the world about the nature of gun control and violence.

Very entertaining, eye opening, and well done. It has comical relief, supposed facts, and asks a lot of the right questions. I struggle with the resale value of a documentary. See it to learn (even if it is inaccurate).
