Did anyone else see this film when it was shown recently on TV?

I know that the views of Michael Moore tend to attract no great deal of respect from the wonderfully un-biased media both here and in the USA, but I thought it gave a very interesting perspective on the whole banking crisis, it's causes, effects and on-going implications.

Have only watched half of it so far, but it is very interesting.

I think Michael Moore can be a bit over the top at times, but on the whole he tells it like it is, and probably why the good old Republican media, including the Rupert Murdoch groups both here and in the USA, hate him for it, and try to discredit him at every turn.

I only saw about the first three quarters of it as I was working, but I thought it was an excellent piece of work.

I don't agree with some of his sentiments, but some of the stuff he highlighted (the almost infestation-like appearance of various Goldman-Sachs employees in US Government being a notable one) really makes you think.
