Michael Moore Sicko Reviews - Health
Care Industry Documentary
After exploring the predominance of violence in American culture in Bowling for
Columbine and taking a critical look at the September 11th attacks in Fahrenheit
9/11, activist filmmaker Michael Moore turns his attentions toward the topic of
health care in the United States in this documentary that weighs the plight of
the uninsured against the record profits of the pharmaceutical industry. Moore
interviews a number of people who have been left broke by medical bills even though
they were fully insured, and explains how the corporate drive for profits has
left numerous people in financial and medical disarray. After hearing that detainees
in Guantanamo have access to free health care, Moore assembles a group of World
Trade Center rescue workers to travel to Cuba in order to get the medical help
they need for ailments they incurred in 2001. Sicko debuted at the
2007 Cannes Film Festival.
