Sicko

While it’s true Michael Moore is selective with his data, he must be to tell the most emotional story possible. This is why “60 Minutes” doesn’t do hard-hitting exposés on Ralph’s brand enriched white rice. It’s bland. Moore takes his time with Sicko, reveling in his trips to foreign soil where there are hospitals with no cashiers. While he doesn’t offer many solutions for the American health care system, he avoids flat-out criticism. Through anecdotes he aims not to educate that the health system is flawed, (we all know that) but to energize his viewers into action by stating, strongly and emotionally, that all hope is not lost.
