Do they actually make documentaries anymore?

I'm not particularly interested in seeing the recent Bill Mahr movie Religulous.  I'm sure I can find more reasonable atheist opinion elsewhere; but I did want to agree with the first paragraph of the Christianity Today review of the film:

"Let's face it: most documentaries these days don't bother to document anything in an objective, journalistic sense. We can thank Michael Moore for re-conceiving the documentary film as something akin to a sensationalistic, cinematic op-ed piece. If you have something you hate, or something you want to humiliate in as public a way as possible, make a documentary!"
