Pros: Humor is pretty good; Some of Moore's opinions are right on the money Cons: Some silliness; conservatives will not agree with Moore's convictions at all.
Michael Moore is an author, film- maker, and social/political activist who first hit the best seller lists with his book “Downsize This”. His first book was a humorous account of the clumsy, thoughtless white men who run the United States. Now, five...
Pros: identifies a lot of current social and political problems Cons: can't always tell when he's being funny vs. serious, plays loose with facts
Ive always stated that I really dont consider myself a liberal; more of a middle-of-the-roader with distinctly left leanings at times. If I needed any reassurance of that position, it came with the book Stupid White Men ...and Other ...
Pros: Moore moves from Big Business to Politics...and it gets MESSY Cons: Seems to be telling one side of the story
As prologue to my first review in SIX weeks, let me just say that living with a ten-week old baby is the best, most wonderful, most rewarding experience I've ever had. We love Miles so much, and he's healthy, happy, and perfect. But he sucks up the...
Pros: Funny, entertaining, chock full of info Cons: Moore gets pretty mean spirited at times...
Reading this book took me back to a time where our country was filled wih discontent, anger and confusion. Yes, the infamous 2000 election and probably the most pathetic ways to start out the new millenium. The airways were ripe with controversy and...
Pros: Moore fires a lot of rounds and some hit me... Cons: ...but the majority miss. Perhaps he should check his own writing before criticizing Bush's literacy.
The problem with Michael Moore is that hes either really conniving or really stupid; hes either consciously decided to make his money off his nations poor, just like the politicians he criticizes; or hes honestly trying to make a ...
Pros: A view like no one else's Cons: Some might dismiss Moore right off the bat
"Stupid White Men" was written by none other than one of America's most hated liberals Michael Moore. Moore has made a life out of criticizing most people associated with the establishment and waves his brush of criticism just about as widely as ...
Pros: Scathing Wit, Biting Satire, Amazing breadth of facts, and a chewy caramel center! Cons: Those on the Right afraid of confrontational criticism and brutal dissent, beware!
This amazing book is a satire about life, politics, and race in America, plain and simple. If you enjoy skewering sacred cows and controversial topics, especially if the subjects are supposed to be “taboo” because we in America are supposed to be...
Pros: Sense of humor, a few points. Cons: Everything else.
I must say I was quite surprised by the poor quality of Michael Moore's Stupid White Men. I expected it to be outright bad. Overall, I simply couldn't stand the book, and took like six pages in notes on it, but in the last few ...
Pros: Funny, Well-written, Insightful, Clever, Well-cited Cons: Moments are over-the-top
In the brief time I have been reading the books of Michael Moore (this is, to be fair, only the second one I've read), I've learned that he is a polarizing guy. People tend to like him or hate him. The people who like him tend to like his sense of ...
Pros: Has some funny moments, Chapter 3 is pretty good Cons: Dishonest, generally not funny, boring, simplistic arguments
I was debating whether or not to write a review of this book. There have already been several reviews on Epinions, and I usually try to hit up products that have not been reviewed very much. However, Moores book seemed like it would be an enjoyable ...
Pros: Moore is straightforward about his ideas Cons: Be forewarned - you might not agree with Moore's opinions!
Readers of this review are likely to be most familiar with Michael Moore from the movie Roger and Me. In that film, he and another performer tell of their fight against Detroit automakers, in a documentary style.
Pros: Great information and a little bit of fun. Cons: More depressing than Moore's earlier books.
Stupid White Men is quite a bit different from Moore's previous books, Downsize This: Random Threats From an Unarmed American and Adventures in a TV Nation. In the previous books, Moore basically told about how he screwed around with ...
Pros: Easy read. Laugh out-loud funny at some points. Cons: Moore occasionally goes a bit too far and you can buy the book at Walmart.
You may have heard the comparison before, but this book made me finally realize it: Michael Moore is the liberal equivalent of Rush Limbaugh. Sure Michael doesn't have a talk show and he is willing to talk to and debate those opposed to his political...
Pros: Opens your eyes to some pressing issues. Laugh out loud funny on many occasions. Cons: Facts can drag on... and on... and on...
Michael Moore has now almost reached the level of being a household name. The filmmaker/writer from Flint, Michigan has become quite popular recently. This is mainly due to the success of his latest movie Bowling For Columbine, which won an Oscar after b ...
Summary: The basic argument of ‘Stupid White Men’ is that most of the ills of society can be attributed to oppressive, white men. Despite focusing primarily on Republicans and most especially on what Moore considers to be the ‘stolen’ election by ...
