It’s timeliness, it deserves everyone’s attention

For the United States, Michael Moore is roughly equivalent to Li Ao in Taiwan. The reason for admiring them is the same. Although the comments are extreme, there are always a lot of data and documents to support them. What's more, today's society is too short of such a voice. I guess the director does not regard himself as a pure filmmaker. In the same way, we can hardly use general standards to measure this movie.

As a financial worker, I have witnessed the miraculous changes in the market in the past two and a half years. The end of the world has come. We can be so forgetful, no wonder history repeats itself. Or maybe you are so ignorant that you never feel that the end of the world has come. It's as if I didn't know anything about LTCM before starting work, and had no interest in the real estate market. If you are as ignorant as I used to be, watch this movie and you will know some things you should know. For example, the collapse of Lehman Brothers came from the spreading of rumors on Wall Street by Goldman Sachs, also a rival of the Jewish investment bank. For example, AIG was rescued by the US government. Goldman Sachs was not affected by the financial crisis at all, but was more profitable than before. The main reason is the close relationship between Goldman Sachs and the high level of the US government. Just like the LTCM incident, it is the honest taxpayers who pay for Wall Street.

One percent of people control more than 95 percent of wealth. This is capitalism, and there is no morality at all. From a personal point of view, we can always try to ensure that we are not the most serious victim, but there will always be someone who will be harmed. And is the method of restraining harm really democracy?

I gave 5 stars because of its modernity and it deserves everyone's attention.

    The ending song was the rock version of "Internationale", and the audience stood up and applauded. It is estimated that the Chinese will not like it, because they do not love the United States, but capitalism; Michael Moore loves the United States, not capitalism.

    In the end, all of Moore's films are logically chaotic and unreasonable. They all rely on catering to the audience's emotions. Think about it if your house is confiscated by citybank. Watching this film will be tearful and give five stars without even thinking about it. In the middle, when he said, "All good brains are going to study business", even I was catered to, so this movie won't give two stars.
