Stephen C Real footage in 1 hour and 33 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated PG-13 for Brief Strong Language!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/20/25 Full Review Kyle M Since the grossing discomforting truth in the effectively exposed form through “Super Size Me”, the planted landscape regarding food and healthy wellbeing been considerably further explored since, Spurlock’s determination seems to remain close-minded in the chain without broadened acknowledgement as he re-approach his engaging topic with bigger risks that cleverly evaluates amid social experimentation. The haunting “Food, Inc” rethinks in brutal shock, henceforth doesn’t cater Spurlock’s return to the topic very well nor does it do any favors to responsively grasp the raised problem narrowed to show industrial true colors. While the topical approach surely lost credible interest, it’s fixating with revelation, amusing over the sequel’s core continuation as the documentarian’s charismatic extent coming full circle once his criticism got proven, and overall engaging with further advocating as its own suggestive phase once the predecessor gotten acceptably heard. (B) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/05/25 Full Review David F In this film, Morgan Spurlock revisits the fast food industry to examine the ways in which it has rebranded itself as healthier, fresher, and better for you, even as it has continued down the path it was on over a decade ago when Spurlock made a film about how bad for you fast food was. Information about fast food is interspersed with Spurlock’s adventure setting up his own fast food restaurant serving chicken sandwiches, and you learn a lot about chicken farming, branding, and the meaninglessness of USDA-approved food labelling. This is a satirical documentary about a sophisticated New York hipster pulling back the curtain on flyover country’s diet and dining habits. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/28/24 Full Review Jeff M I have always considered Morgan Spurlock to be a kindler, gentler Michael Moore. The original SUPER SIZE ME is one of my favorite documentaries ever, and I have seen it at least half a dozen times. So I was obviously extremely keen to see what he would come up with in the sequel. Unfortunately, it's a bit of a mixed bag. By far, the best part of this movie is when he focuses on the chicken farmers who are under the dictatorship of the National Chicken Council. These scenes are interesting, disturbing and often unexpectedly moving. My issue with the film is when he opens his own fast food restaurant. His message becomes muddled. I admire the fact that he would open a restaurant in which he is truthful with what goes on behind the scenes, but by opening the restaurant he is still contributing to the industry he has skewered. So it all becomes a bit confusing as to the message he is trying to convey. It's still very entertaining, and the good definitely outweighs the bad, but it comes nowhere near the Oscar nominated original. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/24 Full Review meredith w Morgan Spurlock is back to again battle with the food industry, this time from behind the register as he opens his own fast food restaurant. While it sticks to formula in its structure, it's an interesting, eye-opening film that is unfortunately underrated given the controversy surrounding Spurlock as its director and star that saw its release pushed back. Its expose of fast food marketing tricks is eye-opening, however, its revelation of how poorly the farmers are treated is the sadly the biggest take-away.
