This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Weeeeelllllll, now that he's confessed that he was an alcoholic, pretty much all his credibility has gone out the window due to him probably being on alcohol during the whole McD's experiment....

We had to watch this movie several times at school. Though most of my classmates are too stupid to understand the concept of fast food being unhealthy, this movie is well made and entertaining.

Mc Donald's takes a punch from the documentary supersize me. Directed by Morgan Spurlok and staring Morgan Spurlok, it documents the Mc Donald's involvement in the obesity epidemic raging through America.Filmed over the course of 30 days and chronicling Morgan's Mcdiet in which he must eat from McDonald's 3 times a day breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The point of this is to see what changes, if any, occur physically. Mc Donald's claims that their food can be a part of a balanced, healthy diet and that they don't tell you to eat from their chains but supersize me zones in on the very effective child manipulation of which McDonalds is spearheading .I would give this film a 9/10; it proved an enjoyable insight to the workings of the super-chain McDonalds.

Interesting, illuminating documentary on the fast-food industry.Observing the obesity epidemic in the USA, a documentary film-maker, Morgan Spurlock, eats only MacDonalds meals, three times a day, for 30 days. His aim is to document the changes to his body. He enlists a host of medical experts to keep track of what is happening to himself. Between this he weaves a story of the fast-food industry, and MacDonalds in particular, the food we eat and human behaviour with regard to food.Quite eye-opening and the results are quite profound. If you do eat regularly at MacDonalds, this might change your mind...Also good in that it doesn't pull any punches or try to politically correctly tiptoe around issues. Fat people are called just that and shown up for their own behaviour.On the negative side it is a touch manipulative and, at times, unobjective. A minor compliant though, especially when you compare this with the bullsh*t Michael Moore parades as "documentaries". Moore's films have zero objectivity, contain almost as little facts and are entirely based on manipulation and his own opinions.The other slightly jarring thing is the thought that MacDonalds is entirely to blame for people being fat, and are hence suable for it. Surely fat people only have themselves to blame? Oh wait, it's the 21st century and you're now never responsible for your own actions...
