If you want to stay healthy in America, don't get sick.

Following on the heels of his Palm d'Or winning 'Fahrenheit 9/11' and his Oscar winning film Bowling for Columbine, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Moore's new documentary sets out to investigate the American healthcare system. Sticking to his tried-and-true one-man approach, Moore sheds light on the complicated medical affairs of individuals and local communities.

This might hurt a little.

Now for my favourite review of this great movie.

The Cannes Film Festival is as much about films the world will never see as it is about films the world will. Last year's Southland Tales has gone into hiding, for example, almost certain to release in a completely different format than the one that played at the festival. This year Michael Moore, who won the Palme d'Or the last time he was here with Fahrenheit 9/11, is rushing to tell the world that Sicko contains 20 minutes of footage the U.S. government doesn't want you to see.

Shot in Cuba, Moore makes a case against the HMO medical system in America by reveling in the luxury of Havana's flagship hospital and by claiming that inmates at Guantanamo Bay have better healthcare than U.S. citizens. By showing the footage here in Cannes, Moore says, he fears arrest on his return to the U.S. and he doubts that this footage will be included in any version of the film played in America.

And much like the "Disney refuses to release my movie," controversy of Moore's previous Cannes visit, we can probably laugh this off as Michael being Michael. Indeed, Sicko is full of examples of Michael being Michael. During his visit to Cuba, he charters a boat to Guantanamo Bay with survivor volunteers from 9/11 who now suffer from severe respiratory illnesses to ask if the U.S. government might deign to offer them the same quality of healthcare it's offering the terrorists who planned the attacks.

Towards the film's end, he discovers that Jim Keneflick, proprietor of the web's largest anti-Moore website Moorewatch.com, is going to be forced to shut down his site after his wife becomes ill and he can't afford the $12,000 needed to pay for her care. So, keen to protect Keneflick's right to free speech, or so he says, he sends the money. Anonymously. Keneflick has only recently found out who his mystery donor was - after the film had been screened to an audience of thousands.

They say that true altruism doesn't exist, and in Michael Moore's case that's as true as any. Yes, Keneflick's wife got the help she needed, but only at the expense of her husband's humiliation on screen. Moore's fine distinction between documentary and comedy is what makes his films so popular, inspiring people to think while they laugh. Arguably more than any other filmmaker on the planet, Moore knows how to connect a wide audience - who'd usually much rather see Spider-Man - with a documentary format. It may be somewhat exploitative for any number of people who aren't Michael Moore, but it works.

Sicko presents a compelling case against HMOs, but as with most of Moore's work it is more than obvious that while the facts are indisputable there are plenty more he's chosen to ignore. For this British critic, his portrayal of the socialized system of our NHS made that abundantly clear. Yes, as Moore shows us, we don't pay for our hospital visits, and the cashier in hospitals gives us money for transport home after an operation, and our doctors are, indeed, incentivized to offer the best care to their patients.

But Moore neglects to ask how long we need to wait for a hospital bed in many cases. Or if people ever get sick because the hospitals they're staying in aren't clean enough. This is where our NHS fails, but because it doesn't support Moore's case it's simply not mentioned.

That the treatment of patients in America is shockingly inhuman in many cases is obvious, and Moore uncovers a huge number and variety of horror stories about it. Like much of his work, though, while the film will inspire plenty of discussion through its accessibility, the discussion about Moore himself will outweigh that of the subject he examines.
