Super Size Me


I don't eat very much fast food to begin with, but this didn't exactly make me want to go out and grab a Big Mac. Though I do think Spurlock exaggerated a bit near the first, he did have some very strong points. Some of the scenes were pretty disturbing, more-so than any horror movie you can find. Though hilarious in parts, he certainly knows how to get his point across through comedy. The animated sequences were especially effective. I don't agree with the scene where he showed the bypass surgery though...seemed like it was there simply for the shock value. Overall though, this was a great documentary, and I'm truly surprised that it didn't have a bigger effect on the fast food industry.

8.5/10
