Where in the World is Osama bin Laden? (2008)
Directed by Morgan Spurlock
Written by Jeremy Chilnick and Morgan Spurlock

Documentary / Rated PG-13 / 1 hour 33 min / English/ color
Starring Morgan Spurlock, Alexandra Jamieson

Synopsis (Warning: May Contain Spoilers!)
If Morgan Spurlock (Super Size Me) has learned anything from over 30 years of movie-watching, it is that if the world needs saving, it is best done by one lone man willing to face danger head on to take it down, action hero style. So, with no military experience, knowledge or expertise, he sets off to do what the CIA, FBI, and countless bounty hunters have failed to do: find the worlds most wanted man. Why take on such a seemingly impossible mission? Simple-he wants to make the world safe for his soon to be born child. But before he finds Osama bin Laden, he first needs to learn where he came from, what makes him tick, and most importantly, what exactly created bin Laden to begin with.
