I feel like weather you agree or disagree with what Micheal Moore is doing, Where to Invade Next does make you think about things, and is the type of doc that starts a conversation.
Although, is it a doc when the filmmaker gets so personally involved? Moore sets up Where to Invade Next with a humorous narrative suggesting he was asked by all the heads of the U.S Military to travel to all White countries, see what they can offer America, and take it over for their resources.
The main concept is that there are countries out their who are living at least part of the American dream better than America, and I do mean parts. Moore is not saying these countries are perfect only noting one aspect that they are doing better than America, aspects that these countries actually got from the United States in the first place, aspects we ourselves are not doing as a whole anymore.
You could punch holes in what Moore is trying to do, cause it's easy enough to do, but that would be very pigheaded when the man is just trying to show us (in a very funny way) how America has fallen off the path and how it's possible to get back on track.
It's not an easy path to get back on, in fact its More complicated than what Moore is explaining, but the doc does get you asking "Why doesn't America work that way?" I feel that's important.
