SiCKO - the PharmaGossip review


This movie, at just over 2 hours long is, in Insider's opinion, Moore's best work so far. The time flies by as you get wrapped up in the stories and issues.

This is Moore at his very best. Not as obviously angry as in Fahrenheit 9/11 - this is a cooler dish. But just as well prepared.

SiCKO is a movie every thinking American should see. Particularly those with healthcare who think that they are "covered"!

It should be shown in schools, colleges and town halls and the issues it raises should be debated.

Oprah was exactly right in calling for a town hall meeting in the Autumn to discuss SiCKO.

As for the Brits and Canadians and French (and people from all other countries with free open access healthcare at the point of delivery). They should see the movie also. Then they may not be so quick to criticize the comparatively mild failings of their own health systems.
