A good movie

View all The Big One reviews
The Big One is a feisty and clever documentary in which satirist Michael Moore ("Roger and Me") travels across America on a book tour for his bestselling "Downsize This." In different cities, he tries to get corporate executives to explain why they are laying off thousands of workers when their companies are making staggering profits. The rich are different, he proves, and right now they are very busy widening the gap between the haves and the have-nots with a vengeance.

“I have always been a huge fan of Michael Moore's work and, if I recall it correctly, I saw this movie some time after I saw ‘Bowling for Columbine’ which is still, by far, his very best movie. Anyway, 8 long years after ‘Roger & Me’, Moore was finally coming up with a new documentary and, even though it might not be his most famous feature, I thought it was still pretty good.
