This was a good documentary but was heavily loaded in one direction. Spurlock definitely had an agenda and worked hard to disgust and shock us. Sure McDonalds food isn`t nutritious and contains things that aren`t good for the body, but eating it 90 times in one month isn`t representative of real life. I`m sure that if you ate dill pickle chips or ice cream for every meal 90 times in a row you wouldn`t do well either. Point taken, though. It was entertaining and I thought Morgan was a hoot.
Well, I started to cry as I am currently 418 pounds...I feel like such a VICTIM of the fat food industry. I know, you`re all gonna say, "no one was forcing it down your throat" but really, they tempt you, almost taunt you to supersize your meal. (Particularily when you are large in stature) I wish this movie had been made 10 years ago when I was a healthy 167 pounds...woe is me...woe is my other me. I`m a fat man trapped in an obese man`s body.
An excellent movie. Anybody who eats fast food MUST see this.
The scariest part of this whole thing was when the movie showed what the school lunch programs were serving the kids - and then, in one school - for the very same price - the kids were being served organic foods, without added sugars, and these were supposed to be "problematic kids" - but they were all attending their classes, and paying attention. Food is a drug to the body, and we are poisoning our youth.
What a great movie!!! A must see for everyone. It is amazing how much influence fast food crap has on our lives. See the movie and understand better why the US and Canada is FAT. And if you FAT, realize what it is that makes people FAT...FAST FOOD FAT. We all have to wake up and stop giving these guys our money. Drink water...not Pepsi or Coke....Water adds life not Coke. See the Moive....
Really good just make sure you don`t bring fast food in the movie
Great flick. In a Michael-Moore-ish sort of way, it compels you to recognize the potential danger in something so common. The movie isn`t really about McDonalds - it`s about the culture of over-consumption in the United States.
best documentary I have ver seen!!
touching..
This movie has opened my eyes to the tight grip fast food business has over the masses. It should be seen by everyone!! Im not swearing off of fast food but I will definietly think twice when I needlessly desire the Mc munchies.
