Reviews:

”Good The movie is well put together, if a little long (the sequences in Canada, England, and France could be shortened), but there's a good mix of humor and pathos. Sicko is flawed but effective.“ Berardinelli, Internet Critic

”Good Professional gadfly Michael Moore's first film since the incendiary FAHRENHEIT 9/11 (2004) takes on the American health-care system and makes the enraging, bombastic case that it's sicker than any patient.” TV Guide Online

”Very Good ...the net effect of "Sicko's" penetrating and devastating inquiry into the way America takes care of its ill and dying is to transfer the anger to the audience rather than have Moore's own outrage spread all over his film.” Newsday
