SICKO (2007)

Cast

Plot

Mr Moore is at it again, trashing the core values of ‘The Land of the Brave and the Free', this time it's the ripoff American health service, a system which despite its huge cost is one of the least effective in the ‘developed' world. Moore compares it with the health services of Canada, Britain, France and Cuba as examples of how a system should be run, but, and this is always the flaw in Moore's documentaries, you never get a truly rounded argument. However the man's mission is to address the imbalance, to provide a non-corporate, non-governmental view point and "Sicko" is a particularly good example of his informed outrage; insightful, entertaining and bitingly witty.
