Video Review - Sicko - 3.0 stars

latest documentary from Michael Moore about the american health care industry and the flaws inherent to the system, namely high premiums, denials of claims, for profit industry.

one sided documentary in that moore does not offer time for the health care lobbyists/industry to refute his claims.

i'd need to do some research to see if the rosy picture he paints of health care life in canada, u.k. and france is true or he's just cherry picking instances. in particular france with the traveling doctor, and nannies who help new mothers.

kind of felt sorry for the 9/11 workers who were used as props by moore during the cuba trip to demonstrate better health care in cuba.

all that said, very sad the real instances of people whose lives were lost or irrevecably changed due to denial of health care...
