Andrea Gronvall Chicago Reader Mar 4, 2020
The director's comparisons between Trump and Adolf Hitler are overblown, but it's useful to be reminded that demagogues and oligarchs do not, as he puts it, fall out of the sky. Go to Full Review

3/5
Another fine document of American life at an astonishingly strange point in its history. Sadly the film fails to answer its own questions, despite its most impressive and moving moments appearing to offer something of a solution. Go to Full Review
Tom Charity Sight & Sound Jan 2, 2019
While some of Moore's shtick feels old hat there is a renewed urgency about his message. Go to Full Review

Moore doesn’t simply settle for how Trump won. He goes on to show why he thinks Trump’s presidential actions have paved the way for a worse America. Go to Full Review

Fahrenheit 11/9 may not be the smoothest film, but it is the most urgent, angry and important film to witness right now. Go to Full Review

Is heavy-handed? Yes. Of course it is; it's Michael Moore. Is it effective? Yes. It's a dissertation on where we are and where we are headed, for better and for worse. Go to Full Review

Hagrid P Apr 20, 2019 As is usually the case Michael Moore does an excellent and entertaining job of presenting his case. What made this documentary work for me is the fact that it is not one sided. he harshly criticises the Democrats in their failures which Moore believes helped Donald Trump get elected. One such failure is Barack Obama's dismal failure regarding the water crisis in Flint, Michigan. That segment of the documentary is painful to watch but if liberals hope to do well in the future and not loose again, they need to learn from their mistakes. "Fahrenheit 11/9" could very well be Moore's best documentary to date. You will certainly be thinking about the points made in it after you have seen it. See more
Finn S Apr 3, 2019 All his movies are leftist propaganda
Rey P Mar 29, 2019 Mike Moore doesn't like republicans. Let's get that out of the way -- he's an honored guest at DNC events, he raises (and donates) millions for democratic candidates. So whatever happens, its republicans' fault. So it was George Bush's fault that them planes rammed into those buildings. There, you don't have to see this, it's the equivalent of MM shouting this at you for 120-odd minutes (I'm a democrat, by the way, but I don't like him on "my side") See more
Ron S Mar 20, 2019 Powerful though a bit rambling at times. Still well worth the view for anyone concerned about America's future.
Mar 20, 2019 Fahrenheit 11/9 The writer first heard of Michael Moore a million years ago when he was in high school, his memorable history teacher forced him to watch a Michael Moore documentary. âOh geez, another boring documentary,â? the young student thought. But, it was unlike any documentary he had ever seen. Michael Moore was highly intelligent, interesting, bold and funny. Learning could be fun again. He became not only a fan of Michael Moore, but also of documentaries. Michael Mooreâ(TM)s career continued strongly, he won an Oscar for Bowling for Columbine, made a lot of money and joined the A List of Hollywood. His most recent film is Fahrenheit 11/9. The reader should watch Fahrenheit 11/9 because it explains how Trump won the election, educates one on Flint Michiganâ(TM)s water crisis, and how Michael Moore covered his on ass; although there are interesting facts, Michael Mooreâ(TM)s views are always biased. How did Trump win the election? How is Trump Americaâ(TM)s current president? Many people are baffled and think this is still some horrible prank, and when the reality sinks in they are massively depressed. The documentary starts out with a pre-celebration from Hillaryâ(TM)s party and the crickets over at Trumpâ(TM)s party. It was a womanâ(TM)s year. It showed all the happy people waiting to hear that Hillary will be their next president. But everyone knows how this story plays out. Then it cuts to Hillary losing, having those who were celebrating crying. It looked like some people were going to kill themselves and one is not sure how many of them actually did. Next cut to Trumpâ(TM)s empty depressed party. Nobody was smiling or happy, nobody was celebrating on Trumpâ(TM)s side for some reason. Trump did not even bother writing a victory speech because he thought he was not going to win. This is Americaâ(TM)s current president. This was the surprising conclusion of the election. Why did Trump run for president? At the time of the election, Gwen Stefani on the Voice was being paid more than Trump on the Apprentice. Trump is never going to be number two. Trump came up with this genius publicity stunt to buy and schedule three presidential campaigns to boost his popularity in attempts to raise his Apprentice salary. He had no intention of actually running. His first rally he just said whatever was on his mind to spark publicity. It was a disaster and his publicity stunt backfired on him and instead of boosting his popularity and thus increasing his salary; he was fired from the Apprentice. So, now unemployed, he had two more rallys that he had already paid for; might as well use them. The second rally was a huge success, with a massive turnout. A lightbulb went off in Trumpâ(TM)s head and the rest is history. This is how Trump accidentally became President of the United States. Michael Moore connects President Trump to the emperor of Flint. He compares them both as successful businessmen who have no business holding any kind of office. The emperor got elected most likely by buying his way into office. Then he used his power to benefit himself. The emperor somehow routed Flyntâ(TM)s water supply into some dirty Michigan river which resulted in poisoning the poor class. Michael Moore described it as a legal genocide to blacks. This is what this documentary was really about. Michael Moore is a hero and his weapon is his documentary. His home is Flynt. He cannot make a documentary just about the emperor of Flynt because no one will watch it. So he throws in Hillary and Trump, but this was the main message he wanted to show. He then showed Obama going to Flynt and drinking two glasses of water. Everyone in Flynt hates Obama after that. Michael Moore succeeds in secretly educating you on the shady dealings of Flintâ(TM)s emperor. Is Michael Moore a Trump supporter? During the colossal election, one was under the impression that Michael Moore strongly disliked Hillary and liked Trump. Michael Moore was everywhere Trump and his team was. So, did Michael Moore openly support Trump, regret it after he was elected, then back track on his stance? A part of this documentary explains in detail how Michael Moore was set up to look like he was a supporter of Trump while he adamantly was not. Can a setup be that perfect? Trumpâ(TM)s son backed one of Michael Mooreâ(TM)s book or documentary; Michael Moore was seen hugging Trumpâ(TM)s press secretary or something; Michael Moore was seen on tv joking with Trump, having a cordial interaction; Michael Moore was quoted as saying, âDonâ(TM)t count trump out,â? when it was sure Trump was going to lose. One believes Michael Moore supported Trump strongly, then changed his mind afterwards and wanted to change his political image. Michael Moore is a swip swapper. Part of this documentaryâ(TM)s agenda was to protect Michael Mooreâ(TM)s public image. https://pokergladiator.wordpress.com/ See more
Leia P Mar 19, 2019 The movie Fahrenheit 451 was made in 2018 directed by Ramin Bahrani. Some of the major actors in this movie were Michael B. Jordan as Montag, Sofia Boutella as Clarisse, and Michael Shannon as Captain Beatty. This film was made after the book, Fahrenheit 451. The movie and book are two different things but almost identify as the same thing. The movie does not have some of the things that the book does. For instance, many of the huge characters in the book are not located in the movie. The parlor that is supposed to be tvâ(TM)s covering  3/4 of the room, is now just a bunch of camera projecting many different things. The what you would think a tv would be, is just a projector. The news broadcasters are actually acted all around the town like a huge screen of what is happening with the town. When you watch the movie, you will realize that the first half of the movie is somewhat just like the book. Once you watch the second half, it has nothing to do with what you had read from the book. Clarisse does look much older than what the book puts her out to be. In Montagâ(TM)s home, there is this âAlexaâ? type thing. It looks down at you and can watch whatever you are doing at anytime and can hear you always. Another thing different from the book to the movie is that in the book you would think they are getting rid of the books for good, but in the movie there is still electronics that do have some books on them. The last thing that I noticed that was different from the book to the movie is that in the movie there will be this âOmnisâ? character. In the book I had not read about this such character. The makers of this movie wanted it to be like what the modern day technology was and how we use it. They wanted the people who watched this new movie to realize that this is what life is like now with our technology. What they donâ(TM)t understand was that Ray Bradbury made this book when he wanted to realize what the future after he had passed would be like. He didnâ(TM)t want to see what the world would be like once modern day people had passed as well. The way the film utilizes the way I look at this movie is the way that they used the different lighting. There is many fires happening, but it was maybe too many. I liked the way that the producers used the different sound effects to make it seem real. The different thematic content that I noticed in the movie was that Montag was an African-American man. In the book I would think that Montag would be White because thatâ(TM)s the way they make him seem. The movie is all about the town and what the firefighters are doing. If something happens with the firefighters, many people will go and watch and see what is going on. The community is very close with one another. This movie I would think wasnâ(TM)t too bad. It was very cool how they brought out some of the characters and made it sound very realistic even on television. I wouldnâ(TM)t say that this movie completely looks after every thing that the book does bout it is still a really good movie. If you watched the movie before you read the book, you would be amazed as to the movie. But if you read the book then watched the movie, it is very different than what you would think would happen. If you wanted to watch this movie, I would say go for it because it is still a really good movie. See more
