I haven't seen either movie, but I think I'd like to see both of them.  I 
feel like Moore goes as far as he possibly can to make a case and tends to 
exaggerate.  I generally agree with his views, and I don't think he needs 
to take things to the absolute limit.  I don't know that he lies, but he 
definitely twists facts to make a case.

I can't say that I find most of Morris' interviewees to be credible or 
even tolerable.  I'll try to watch it, but it might piss me off too much!
