Where in the world is Osama Bin Laden?

And why is Morgan Spurlock looking for him?

You surely do remember Morgan Spurlock, the guy from "Super size me", which was the entertainment documentary that nowadays keeps you from eating McDonald's burgers? Yes you do, we all do remember it! Now this time Spurlock asked himself a question many may have asked before him: Where in the world is Osama Bin Laden? Not that it would matter because nobody seems to look for him anymore, anyway. But the director still would like to find out and so he starts his journey around the world.

Okay, it's not really "around the world". It's "just" Morroco, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Egypt but still, it's far. He meets people, he collects opinions about terror, war and Bin Laden himself and he comes to realize that the majority of people doesn't see only that one person behind terror and that everyone would like to catch him, not only the Americans.

I got my very own thought on entertainment documentaries because there is still a slight difference between cinema docus and ... well normal ones. But on this one I must say I am quite impressed that he really went into all the dark corners, coming out with a smile. But what do we really learn at the end of the movie? Except for that we don't have to look for Bin Laden at some shopping mall?
Okay some watchers who really thought so may learn that not every Afghani, Morrocan and Pakistani is a terrorist but well, whoever thought so yet is a bit paranoid anyway.

Well, it's a good watchable docu (and I appreciate that Spurlock had the guts to actually take that journey) but as I see it it would have been necessary about ... well let's say 7 years ago because the nowadays generation of kids doesn't even know about 9/11 ... at least around here. But you gotta give the movie credit for it is very entertaining and well made. Still recommended!
