Michael Moore afronta el problema que está en el centro de toda su obra: el desastroso impacto que el dominio de las corporaciones tiene sobre la vida cotidiana de los estadounidenses, y, por consiguiente, también sobre el resto del mundo. Desde la América de la clase media hasta los pasillos del poder en Washington y el epicentro financiero global de Manhattan, Michael Moore lleva una vez más a los espectadores por un sendero sin explorar. Con humor e indignación, Capitalismo: Una historia de amor plantea una pregunta tabú: ¿cuál es el precio que paga Estados Unidos por su amor al capitalismo? Hace años, ese amor parecía absolutamente inocente. Sin embargo, hoy el sueño americano se parece cada vez más a una pesadilla, cuyo precio pagan las familias, que ven esfumarse sus puestos de trabajo, sus casas y sus ahorros. Moore nos lleva a las viviendas de personas normales y corrientes, cuyas vidas se han visto trastocadas, mientras busca unas explicaciones en Washington y en otros lugares. Y lo que descubre son los síntomas demasiado familiares de un amor que acaba mal: mentiras, malos tratos, traiciones y 14.000 puestos de trabajo perdidos cada día. Pero Moore no se rinde y nos invita a sumarnos a su lucha, incansable y llena de optimismo. (Alta Films)

I consider Moore's film to primarily be a political pamphlet with everything that pertains to this genre in both a positive and negative sense. It is absolutely not fair, balanced, or reconciling. It aims to influence public opinion in the United States and it is primarily intended for this market. Without a more intimate knowledge of the social context in which it was created, the viewer cannot fully understand it. The film was made, for example, as a counterbalance to the news coverage of the influential television station FOX TV or the conservative American religious right, which owns a number of radios and television stations. Moore focuses on influencing numerous uneducated American voters, who have a world view on the level of Homer Simpson, and who are easily manipulated, and their votes have repeatedly helped the American Republicans win elections. From a film perspective, the film is one of the weaker ones that Moore has made so far, although some satirical jabs and jokes can be enjoyed by Central Europeans. Overall impression: 55%.

Michael Moore is biased, there's no doubt about that. However, on the other hand, he is someone who tries to show us that things are wrong in the world and tries to demonstrate to us exactly what isn't working. Plus, he's funny and he's very caustic about it. For me, his documentaries are just fantastic, and this one also proves it to me. His thoughts are quite consistent with mine.
