BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (Reuters) - Director Michael Moore (news)'s controversial anti-Iraq (news - web sites) war film "Fahrenheit 9/11" won a standing ovation on Tuesday night from an audience of film industry professionals attending its West Coast debut at Academy Award headquarters.

5. Have you seen the reviews at IMDB?
Every negative one was written by a freeper who whines about liberals and hasn't even seen the movie.
