Michael Moore is seriously upset over the MPAA’s refusal to amend the R rating for his new documentary “Where to Invade Next.”

The acclaimed and controversial film director lost his cool and pointed out bluntly how it was the 6th consecutive time the MPAA had classified his films with an R rating.

In a tirade of tweets Michael Moore bashed the MPAA’s review of his documentary saying:


He then went even further to remind them of the shootings that took place “down the road” from the MPAA in San Bernardino where 35 people were shot. The director also pledged not to give up, and will make a "real appeal" on Monday.

“Where to Invade Next” attempts to illustrate how the US can learn from other nations by “invading” them to see what they can offer. The documentary will be released on 23rd December with a limited theatrical run.
