:)
this is fabulous. of course it is very extreme: eating 3 meals a day from one place. but it is a huge eye opener for some people. and the people that are so incredibly bothered by this movie, just dont want to believe it, because they are the consumers.

Hmmm...
Did anyone else notice that he's dating a Vegan chef? So he goes from a heavily Vegan diet to eating McDonald's ALL THE TIME? That would mess anybody up.
That being sad, I think a fair amount of culpability lands on the companies and the fast food industry itself, but more so on the customer. We live in America. No one is making you do anything except pay your taxes. No one is shoving this food down your throat. This is coming from someone who was one of these people. You lose 2 pounds in one week by just cutting out soda. Honestly, this documentary has merit, as extreme as it is, but I think most of the blame should lie directly on the people that go buy this crap every day and shove it down their throats.

I would never do this
I think he's crazy for doing it, but it's interesting to see what changes the body can go through after just a month of an extreme diet.
The only other thing I'll say is that no one's forcing people to eat fast food, and no one likes to be preached to... somehow people have to educate and motivate themselves to eat more healthy. I'm just embarrassed that the US keeps getting fatter and fatter. |

It is interesting. The first time I watched it I had to stop it half way through and go get a wendys burger. haha.
It is extreme but has valid points.

Sure, Spurlock is a Tool... His Message is Extreme BUT Eye-Opening
I live in San Francisco and live a moderately healthy life style - eating as much organic produce and fresh juices as possible. I'm not vegan and LOVE a nice fat rib eye steak 2-3 times a month. I drink (alcohol) with my friends on the weekends and may even have a few smokes (cigs that is) to boot. I exercise regularly but have occasional junk food binges (although I rarely have eaten at micky D's or the like in over a decade). I'm in top shape physically: low cholesterol, low blood pressure - everything checks out with my doctor - blood work all points to great health.
Everyone knows the dangers of drinking, smoking, red meat, fast food, etc. Moderation is really the key to consuming anything - we simply need to to promote alternatives in this very loud market place that is full of well-funded albeit unhealthy corporate messages. While I'm not a big fan of legislating behavioral changes I believe something has to be done about companies whose only motive is profit which results in our children becoming habituated into unhealthy lifestyles. While I think Morgan Spurlock and his vegan girlfriend are downright annoying, he does make a salient point: Teach our children good habits while they're young and we reduce the burden on our already troubled health care system. I give the movie 4 stars for delivering a gritty direct message ... 1 star for being so bohemian and annoying ... 4 stars for entertainment, editing, storyline, etc. Total: 3 stars |
