Bowling for columbine

 

            Film review on Bowling For Columbine.
             Bowling for columbine is a breathtaking, realistic, and also a humorous film. It is indeed the best documentary I have ever seen. It is truly a very well directed film. The director Michael Moore does a tremendous amount of research himself. The film covers a detail perspective about violence. It goes from a start point to an end point in each an every single important event in the American history of major crimes, and events. I think the director's main point of this film was to show the American society that America is not a great place after all. The film constantly bombards you with true facts, and than more facts about the American history. It shocked me that we start the war and than try to make peace. For example: America gave weapons of mass destruction to Iraq, and now we are at a verge of war.
             I thought the film was excellent. It really defies what it shows. The film might not have changed my life, but it certainly changed a small part of my life. I now better understand the behavior of the American community. It really helped me familiarize and showed me a picture, a view from the victim's judgment. My favorite part in the film was when Michael Moore is interviewing James Nichols. As he asked him questions about his past, and asked him why turn to violence for an answer, and Nichols gives him an answer he is unconfident of and says it is in the blood, and it follows the historical events. Moore tells him the way of Gandhi, saying, "Gandhi defeated the British empire without violence." And Nichols once again gives an off the chart apprehensive answer saying "I"m not familiar with his ways." As I laughed in my mind, and a little physically, and I thought of Nichols as the dumbest person to ever get interviewed. .
             The facts that the film shows are very real and touching. It amazes me how all the blame always goes to the same old things like video games, evil rock music especially made by Marilyn Manson, and of course the old classic T.
