I haven’t seen it. But a non-political co-worker commented that she had and loved it. Then added that the notion that Obamacare can force everyone to buy insurance was like a beginning of the kind of government force portrayed in the movie. Hopefully there are alot of low-information citizens getting the same kind of messages from the film....

Yeah, hopefully, although I'm pretty sure that's not the film's intent. But it may be that its message is ambiguous enough, and Obama has people pissed off enough, that people will take something like that away from it nevertheless. If so that's good. But I think most skulls full of mush will take away a message that's more Occupy approved.

That said, the movie is pretty lame. I actually was more concerned about its message before I got a chance to see it. After I saw it, I realized how forgettable it is. Despite all the hype around it, I think its potential for getting inside people's heads and establishing a meme is fairly low.
