Have you ever seen a documentary by Michael Moore? If so, you either love him or hate him. His most popular movie was Fahrenheit 911. While this had a democratic slant, it still made for interesting viewing for anyone. One of his more recent films is Capitalism: A Love Story. Once I saw it listed on Direct tv Movies on Demand, I knew I had to watch it. I braced myself for what was to come and hit play.

One thing is for sure, this is one film that will get you thinking, and possibly asking questions.
