Top Critics Reviews

'Sicko' is a quieter, more focused and less feral beast than its predecessor, 'Fahrenheit 9/11', but that's not saying much.

Though the focus occasionally strays, the film emerges as a fascinating exploration and powerful indictment of a pressing national problem. This is Moore's biggest, best and most impassioned work.

If other countries can provide their people with universal health care, why can't we? If we can't, who are we?

If Moore is using his aw-shucks attitude to articulate a collective anger with such far-reaching effectiveness, tolerating his shtick is the least we can do.

There's plenty of grandstanding, most of it very funny. And in this instance, all that sizzle is selling the steak.
