A friend said that I HAD to see it because it was great, and he was right. I was reluctant because I loathe Michael Moore, but this was an eye-opening look at the US healthcare system. While I knew our system was terrible, I didn't know quite how terrible it is. The movie left me feeling ashamed of being American and we left with comments of "when should we move to Canada or France?" I highly recommend this movie.
Last night we had a "boy" date night to do a little cheering up after a rough week. We had some yummy sushi (for him) and tempura shrimp and veggies (for me). Then we went to see this:
This was a movie that garnered the quote "That was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Sort of like a modern Princess Bride." I should note that I did not utter said quote, but it was an interesting and enjoyable movie. It had many plotlines that all eventually converged, and had many pieces of humor laced throughout. The concept of a star fallen from sky represented by Claire Danes was akin to Alanis Morisette playing God in Dogma, but an interesting premise nonetheless. It was a unique movie, and one we both enjoyed. For $2, it doesn't take much to entertain me!

Sicko was only here in Erie for a few days! I didn't get a chance to see it. I like Michael Moore, and I like it when people hate him :) hehehehe
