The film starts well, but then turns into annoying propoganda. It is the perfect documentary to feed off of naive minds, what a great match for OSPIRG! It is tough to compete with Moore 'great charm,' thou. I have a friend who always claimed to be strongly conservative, and after watching Sicko was convinced that socialized health care was the only answer to America's problems. People assume that since there are some scumbags in the private sector, we should move all power to the government, which we all know in this day and age has just as many scumbags as any entity. Don't hate the whack game, hate the whack players. The Reason article hits it pretty well. The film starts well, but then turns into annoying propoganda.
