I just got home from seeing Farenheit 9/11, don't worry, I won't spoil it for you! I have to say hough, that I cannot remember the last time I cried so much during a movie.

Yea. I am even feeling that my uber-conservative parents may swing the other way this time. It will be a grand occasion.

I am going to see the movie tomorrow night. I am pleased that people are reacting to it.

I got my ticket to see it tomorrow. I didn't realize it was so moving...i'm nervous about seeing it now - i don't want to get overly pissed or depressed or anything.

I saw it last night. I can't remember the last time I laughed so much during a movie. Not all the time, obviously, but I like how Moore juxtaposed the comedic elements agains the very touching/upsetting ones.

I found myself sitting emotionless during the film. The movie wasn't for me, it was for everyone that had been the way Moore had described the majority of Americans post-9/11. I mostly watched the packed audience, and their reactions to the film were as you said quite promising ( ... )
