It's not lying "once in a while." Take a look at that website. Not very much in Bowling for Columbine is very trustworthy. In fact, you can't really take it as a documentary of anything except perhaps Michael Moore's ego.
And it does matter if he lies. A documentary is supposed to be true. The fact that it's called a documentary means that people use it as evidence.
What if Tom Brokaw were to get on NBC Nightly News one day and knowingly report a completely false or misleading story? Would you just shrug and say, "Oh well. Everybody lies once in a while"?
