Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) *
Michael Moore's worst film, a pathetic defence of Saddam Hussein's regime. And it's incoherent too: the first half denounces Saudi Arabia's influence on George W. Bush, and the second half denounces George W. Bush's decision to invade Iraq in 2003, but the film forgets to mention that Saudi Arabia opposed the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Unlike "Bowling For Colombine", which won an Oscar for Best Documentary, and unlike "Sico", which was at least nominated for that award, "Fahrenheit 9/11" wasn't nominated for an Oscar at all, but instead received several Golden Raspberries awards.
