To understand firsthand what the United States of America can learn from other nations, Michael Moore playfully “invades” some to see what they have to offer.

Wow! Such a good movie.
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Their were a lot of very interesting point brought to light in the this film. I would hope people would be more opened mined and observant of what works and don't work in society. Great film and very informative, I hope the messages and the information someday lead to a debate to a better way of tackling social and world problems..
Dear Michael Moore I live all my live in Europe and started to think if I've missed something in here... I hope with this documentary will get the situation in the US better. In company's people have to listen don't get to say a lot. In Europe you get discriminated on religious and cultural bases. They all say that they treat you as the same until you ask them this very same question when they had a drink or two...
This review will contain spoilers.Where to invade next was released in 2015 in Canada and United States of America and three months later they released it for the rest of the world. Michael Moore who wrote and directed this movie is back with another funny documentary that will for sure make you laugh but also show you the differences between USA and some other countries.This documentary is produced by Michael Moore, he's traveling around the world to conquer the best ideas and concepts and bring them back to the US. He does this in order to make a better society in the US. In the film he is traveling to places such as Italy, France, Tunisia, Slovenia, Portugal and Norway to find out if the working conditions, school lunches, gender equality etc.. are better there and why it's better. But this movie is extremely misleading if you believe that just because one school have nice food doesn't mean the entire country has the same quality. It's simply impossible. Likewise, the statement that Germany have so good working condition can't be confirmed unless other sources can back it up. He portrays Europe as if we don't have any flaws at all and that's totally wrong, every country has their flaws but he doesn't show the entire picture and that makes the film really unreliable. So what can we call it? A documentary or propaganda?But, I really loved the film because of the humor in it but also that it's so serious. Everybody should see the movie and judge it for themselves. I'm sure you will learn something fun, but also a lot of interesting facts you didn't knew about those countries earlier. I guess Michael Moore also has a hidden reason behind this movie. He wants us to discuss and talk to each other about it and the differences between the countries.I highly recommend this movie.
This review will contain spoilers.I have watched the documentary "where to invade next" made by Michael Moore (2015). Michael Moore is a well-known director and political activist who have done other documentaries with a political aim that America has flaws that they should consider taking more serious and learn more about to become a better country. This documentary is about how and why other countries in Europe are better than America. Michael is during the documentary travelling around in different countries to find useful ideas that will further the United States. According to me, this is more of a propaganda movie than a documentary because I believe that when he visit countries like Italy, Norway and Tunisia he is just talking about the good things in their country and compare it to the bad in the USA which doesn't reflect the political situation or each countries welfare in either Europe or in the USA in the right way, because there are flaws in every country and not only in the USA, so the documentary is very biased. To put it in differently his information is also very misleading. He pronounce that in the schools of Finland they doesn't have any homework at all and that's one of the reasons why they have a higher level on their students and why they perform better than the pupils in America. But reported by two reliable newspapers from Sweden (http://www.dn.se and https://www.svd.se ) the students in Finland still have homework, but it's not as much as they have in America. That means that Moore is stating something false when he say that they don't have any homework at all, even if what he is trying to say is that students shouldn't have to dig into a lot of homework immediately after getting home from a long day in school. This is just one example but it's a reason to search if everything he says is exaggeratedly and if he's telling the truth or not. At the same time it's a bit impressive that he does documentaries like this because it gets attention and people do listen to him and he's making a clear point of what he's showing. In other words he is reaching out in the way he wants to, he want people to believe in what he says and that's something to respect. In conclusion I think that it's a well-made movie, the motive of the movie is shown very clear and he does it very well by showing his point, but why my rate will be lower is because of his way of just showing one side of all countries that he visited. People will either trust the things that is said or not, some people may be critical. I would only recommend this movie to people that is critical or want to learn to be critical. I would not show this movie in educational purpose for learning about other countries. I give the documentary 6 out of 10.
