i think moore is plenty valid just because he's the one who wrote it. it would seem over the top coming from the average fan, but it is his book, and now millions and millions of people have seen a bastardized version of it he didn't want made, so i'd probly be pissed as hell too :)
i thought it was very entertaining, but it was really hollywoodized. and they left out important things. and the fact that it was made to apply to contemporary events only served to take away from the true meaning of the story and replace it with a partisan feel. i'm sure plenty of democrats will see that movie and walk away thinking bush is the devil and being glad they're democrats.
