The Top 7: Michael Moore/Dog Eat Dog Films
| by: | Apr 1, 2006 |
Michael Moore/Dog Eat Dog Films
New York, US

Love him or hate him, it's hard to argue with Michael Moore's success. Moore's muckraking has created a host of vocal admirers and detractors, and a veritable cottage industry of critical films attacking his credibility. (Consider the subtly titled Michael Moore Hates America, or Celsius 41.11 as just two examples.) Up next for this hero of the unwashed masses? This year, don't miss Sicko, a film that looks at the us health care industry. Unconfirmed rumors also have him prepping for Fahrenheit 9/11 1/2 in 2007, a follow-up attack on the Bush administration.
