I loved this movie. And I'll say "Mea culpa" as well because I did NOT want to see this movie. But my neighbour browbeat me into seeing it (she had seen it, loved it, and upon hearing my protestations just kept saying: "see it and THEN we can discuss it!"
Why was I so negatively predisposed? Because of Michael Moore and his hatchet-job style of "documentary". I was convinced this was going to be the same kind of biased, selectively edited, one-sided big lie...as virtually every one of Moore's movies have proven to be. My back was up and I was certain "electric car" was going to be along the same lines. Or, worse, it would be another "An Inconvenient Truth" probably the most vile, evil, untruthful piece of filmmaking ever made. But I was wrong. Sure, there was a bias to this movie. But it was neither a huge bias nor was it covert. And the other side to the story was quite fairly presented. AND MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL: it ended on such an upbeat, positive, inspiring note. Bottom line? From a common sense stance and the limited information I have, I must agree with the movie: the PLUG-IN HYBRID is the wave of the future. What an exciting concept! It makes me want to go on the internet and find out what the status of this great technology is.
