Bowling for Columbine
Michael Moore
An evocative examination of America's unique gun
culture. I wish there was more focus on statistics and
numbers, but I acknowledge that there is probably more
emotional oomph in the approach Moore takes. Moore's
final point that America's gun violence epidemic is
caused by a culture of fear within our country seems
logical, but I don't really understand how one goes
about proving that? Everything is predicated on
anecdotes and random clips. I was under the impression
the primary reason is due to the number of guns in our
country, but apparently Canada also has lots of guns?
OK, I looked it up and America has 120.5 guns per 100
people and Canada has 34.7 guns per 100 people.
Alright, that stat should probably should have been
included within the documentary. I don't know. Moore
does a great job of evoking Americana, but something
more concrete and didactic would have been useful. The
interview with Marilyn Manson was in-sane. Very cool.
