Want a movie that tells the true story of the financial crisis? Forget that documentary by Michael Moore. Try "Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs."
It’s the movie everyone’s talking about: the story of a nation sucked in by a deal too good to be true. Huge short-term gains followed by a stunning fall. And a solution that requires the architects of the disaster to step back in and pick up the pieces.
No, not Michael Moore’s Capitalism: A Love Story, which skewers Wall Street and the free market economy for creating an epic real estate boom and bust.
It's the animated surprise hit Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs (in 3-D!) whose cartoon characters – coming to the big screen one year after the fall of Lehman — end up telling us more about the perils of unchecked economic growth than do all the real people in Moore’s documentary.

I disagree.
Michael Moore's film covers specifics of a lot of evils on Wall Street.

I saw it tonight and was impressed. He discussed a lot more than I expected. He mentioned how corporate interests gave Obama a lot of money. Banks, etc. I recommend that people give it a shot.
