If you want your humor with a little controversy, there's Capitalism: A Love Story. If you just want some guilt-free funniness, there's Ricky Gervais in The Invention of Lying. Capitalism: A Love Story is Michael Moore's latest salvo into the political debate as he examines the financial bailout through the larger prism of the free market. The documentary's focus is on how the financial sector's campaign contributions made it easier for them to received billions of taxpayer's dollars.More interesting is Moore's comparison of how much people can make by essentially trading money, when pilots for major airlines make around $16,000 a year and have to donate plasma. Some may say he's the Devil and some may say he's a modern Jonathan Swift but no one can deny that Moore's films get people talking and thinking. He is, above all else, a provocative storyteller and they even say Republicans really liked this film during testing. No matter where you fall, check this one out. Capitalism: A Love Story is rated R for some language. The Invention of Lying is from British comedian Gervais and imagines a world where no one has ever told a lie. Gervais plays a writer who, while he can not explain what he has stumbled upon, begins telling lies when he realizes their advantages. Of course, all of this serves as an exaggerated parable for all the real problems they can start as well. Gervais is a very funny guy and he has surrounded himself with a fantastic cast that includes Jennifer Garner, Rob Lowe, Jonah Hill, Tina Fey, and the tremendous comedian Louise C.K. The film is rated PG-13 for language, including some sexual material and a drug reference. Most PopularMore Good Stuff |
