Fahrenheit 9/11 is an award-winning documentary film by American filmmaker and anti-war activist Michael Moore, which had a general release in the United States and Canada on June 25, 2004 in the run up to that year's presidential election. Though classified as a documentary, the film steps away from the conventions of this genre and employs a heavy dose of satirical black humor in its presentation. Moore himself has called the film as an "op-ed piece" while vehemently defending its factual accuracy. . Consequently, the film is also described in various quarters as a comedy, a propaganda movie and a "quasi-documentary". The film has since been released in 42 more countries and holds the record for highest box office receipts by a general release documentary. The title derives from Ray Bradbury's dystopian science fiction novel Fahrenheit 451 (and the film of the same name based on it) and the September 11, 2001 attacks.

The film generated a great deal of controversy. It presents a critical look at the administration of George W. Bush and the War on Terrorism. The Los Angeles Times described the film as "an alternate history of the last four years on the U.S. political scene." ^* The documentary has another theme of criticizing the American corporate media for being "cheerleaders" for the war in Iraq, and not providing an accurate and objective analysis of what led to the Iraq invasion and the resulting casualties there.

One of Moore's stated aims in making the documentary was to prevent Bush from being reelected in 2004.
