After watching Fahrenheit 9/11 I was shocked by all that Moore had to say about the Bush administration, and all the corruption in our government. Even though I do believe some of what Moore has to say. I think he came off way too opinionated and scornful. The movie was throwing information at you way to fast and like Hitchens says in his article, Moore’s evidence contradicts itself. Because of the information overload, the audience isn’t sure what to believe. Which in fact may be Moore’s intentions. I believe Moore’s motives behind producing this movie were all very good, even though he was harsh. It’s safe to say that Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11 may have been even more successful if he hadn’t been so blunt.

why no title?
Yeah, Moore came off a bit too opinionated but i think he is just trying to show us how Bush doesn't have what a president needs to have. I don't believe he was throwing information too fast at us, i believe he just didn't want to leave anything out that was important. He did it in a pretty organized way too. Yes, you can tell that Moore is pretty determined to have you on his point of view by the end of the movie but i don't believe his intentions were to 'brain wash' us with an overload of information. And yes he's blunt and harsh but that just made for a really intriguing movie you never wanted to turn your ears off to.
