Spirituality and Practice - 9/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatThe rich are different and right now they're busy widening the gap between the haves and the have-nots with a vengeance.
DVDLaser - 9/10 by Douglas Prattwhen he's retelling his experiences in front of an audience his sense of timing is impeccable and he is quite funny
USA Today - 8/10 by Mike ClarkAs movies go, The Big One is a small one, but it's more consistently funny than Moore's mid-90s broadcast salvo TV Nation.
Film Journal International - 6/10 by Ed KelleherMoore is clever when it comes to baiting executives who seem puzzled or oblivious to his concerns.
User Review - 10/10 by jean-francois gAnother great movie of Micheal Moore. KILL ALL THE CORPORATE ASSHOLE :P
User Review - 10/10 by Dylan PWell my quest to watch every Michael Moore movie ever continues with "The Big One". I really was unsure what the plot of this one was going in all I knew was that it mocked corporate America. It mainly revolves around Michael's book tour for his book "Downsize This!" and the stories he hears about capitalisms plague on America. The film was funny and factual like all of Moore's films. He relentlessly mocks CEO's and the American bourgeois and it is just so hilarious. If you are a Moore fan, this is a forgotten film of his and I would really reccommend watching this one. I might have to buy this one on DVD.
User Review - 10/10 by Ricky JThis is a good movie.Michael Moore once again continues to deliver more truth.
User Review - 10/10 by Chris SMichael Moore's second film after Roger and Me, Moore brilliantly combines a brazen mixture of stand-up comedy, CEO comfrontion, and shenanigans with random house tour esscorts. Moore instantley attacks Corporate america before moving on to attack the failure of gun control, the conspiracy behind 9/11 and the failure of our health care system.
User Review - 10/10 by ** Angelfire *Michael Moore has the uncanny ability to make me cry and this film was no different. He really is a breath of fresh air and only says aloud what we all are thinking. Its nice to have someone willing to stand up for the people in this country, becaues are government sure isn't.
User Review - 10/10 by Robert IMy favorite Moore film. Basically a documentary about his book tour. Could be called the companion to his first book.
