In my view, it’s one of the most genuinely, and valuably, patriotic films any American has ever made. Read full review

Five years after his rambling "Capitalism: A Love Story," the filmmaker bounces back from one of his worst films with one of his best — a surprisingly endearing set of suggestions for a better tomorrow. Read full review

One of [Moore's] more hopeful and celebratory efforts. Read full review

For all the half-hearted assumptions, eyebrow-cocking suggestions, and holes that one could / should poke in its logic...it’s, in Moore’s fashion, made with enough non-superficial craft and sense of aesthetic pleasure to coast for a bit. Read full review

Where to Invade Next is documentary filmmaking gone wrong, a churlish polemic that uses the tools of propaganda to construct its world view. The film itself is an invasive presence, wreaking havoc in the realm of truth. Read full review

I laughed, I cried and I feel motivated to make a change in this country. Thank you Michael for opening my eyes to how our country can be. I feel terrible all the time about things in this society and I have felt it's impossible to fix it. I now know it just takes us folks recognizing the problem so that we can make these changes.… Expand

An improvement over his last two films, this film starts with a conceit that he is authorized by the Joint Chiefs of Staff to visit other countries and take the good ideas they have to bring back to America. MM visits nine countries in total, some of them expected (France and Norway) and some not expected at all (like Slovenia and Tunisia). I found myself wanting to know more about some things, like exactly how the Finnish educational system works. I also wanted to visit the French elementary school that serves these wonderful gourmet meals! (In one of the funniest scenes of the film, MM shows students what a typical American school lunch looks like.) The final point - most of these countries got the idea for their innovations from the U.S. This film manages to be both entertaining and thought provoking.… Expand

Engaging and thought-provoking, Where to Invade Next is Moore's best film in years. Remarkably uncynical and positive, and often hilarious, Moore's utopian travelogue reminds us Americans that we can, and should, do better.

I have to admit I usually find Moore's movies a bit too biased. I prefer my documentaries to present and let me decide, but often his are heavy handed.

I prefer my documentaries to present and let me decide, but often his are heavy handed. Even when I agree with his stance, they feel force-fed. This one though felt different. It was much better than I expected, he hit a lot of different points, and it all came back to how we Americans have let go of some our fundamental ideals, that were ours originally, but have now been forgotten. Is it still critical? of course, it should be in today's political climate, most importantly though it's hopeful...I think what summed it up was the idea that we have lost sight of what it is to be neighborly...to care for those around us as much as we care for ourselves.… Expand

When people talk about the stupid things SJW do, they mean this guy. I'm not sure who watches this dribble and can call it patriotic. This guy hates, hates, hates America.

I'm not sure who watches this dribble and can call it patriotic. This guy hates, hates, hates America. We should put him in a plane and air drop him into the Middle East. Wonder how fast he would try to make it to the nearest American forces? Hopefully, they'd turn him away.… Expand
