This truly is a great movie! And don't let the title fool you. Yes, it is about trying to find Osama Bin Laden, but it really about a lot more than that. Morgan Spurlock does it again! After his incredible "Super Size Me", he comes back with an even more meaningful follow-up. It's not a funny movie. You do chuckle a few times, but it is meant to be a think piece, and it totally succeeds. You come out of the movie really thinking about it's content, and talking about it too. And Spurlock has a much more even-keeled way of doing a documentary than Michael Moore. I don't want to give any spoilers away, so I am keeping my comments very general. It's a great movie, truly worth seeing. It is effective, it is thought-provoking, and it was done with the best intentions, with a very human ending!!! Don't miss it, as for some reason, it has been released very quitely, and not at large. Probably because of the "War in Iraq" curse on movies that touch upon that subject matter. Way to go Morgan. Can't wait to see what you do next!!!

I saw Morgan Spurlock's "Where in the World is Osama bin Laden? " not knowing what to expect. Spurlock can best be described as a less overbearing, less preachy, skinny Michael Moore. What the movie discovers aside of being an interesting travelogue, is that human being are fundamentally alike. They are alike in wanting peace for themselves, security for their children and a better world for everyone they know or don't know. Spurlock attempts to understand what factors moulded bin Laden, but only really scratches the surface. He comes across as a well intentioned, well meaning, but ultimately arrogant/innocent liberal abroad, (not unlike a fair number of his fellow Americans) I would recommend this film if only for its visits into foreign locales. Anyone looking for a great message or geopolitical revelation in this film are bound to be disappointed. This film could be more appropriately titled," It's a small world afterall."

The movie was OK if not for the fact that it raised interesting points but left too many questions unanswered. Certain potential points about the history (source) of fanaticism and terrorism could have been better presented. IMHO, Spulock dropped the ball.

This movie is amazing. It's like donkey kong meets hot sauce. The director not only shows alternative views of the Osama crisis, he also sheds light on the growing albino rabbit epedemic in the middle east. Truly a masterpiece.

Like most of Morgan Spurlock movie, I found this one a bit long , with a fresh start it get a bit repetitive toward the end. Every American should see this movie, to see another view on a crisis. The fact that it's done in an informal manner the movie is in no way moralizer which add to its credibility.
