But Moore doesn't really advocate anything. 
He just states that something is wrong and it needs to be fixed. He proposes no solution. Nothing wrong with that approach because it can make you think. BUt, I just don't like how he "cuts" pieces out to make people seem foolish or setup others to make them appear dumb.
I tried to keep an open mind, but it's not like he's saying anything. He's just complaining without a proposal and stirring the pot. That's all. It gets a little old after a while.
I wouldn't consider him a documentarian. He's more of a shock-jock filmmaker.

A bit mainstream, but enjoyable nonetheless.
