(comedy, documentary)
Download Movie Super Size MeWhy are Americans so fat? Two words: fast food. What would happen if you ate nothing but fast food for an entire month? Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock does just that and embarks on the most perilous journey of his life. The rules? For 30 days he can't eat or drink anything that isn't on McDonald's menu; he must wolf three squares a day; he must consume everything on the menu at least once and supersize his meal if asked. Spurlock treks across the country interviewing a host of experts on fast food and an equal number of regular folk while chowing down at the Golden Arches. Spurlock's grueling drive-through diet spirals him into a physical and emotional metamorphosis that will make you think twice about picking up another Big Mac.

When I first heard about Morgan Spurlock's 2004 documentary "Super Size Me
", I was quite jaded, because common sense dictate that if one
Eat fast food, which will have the weight and health.
In fact, this is what happened to Spurlock, notwithstanding the magnitude of the
Impairment of health was amazing.

Presented in a format sometimes humorous, "Super Size Me" is a
Experiment conducted by Spurlock in which only eat McDonald's food
three times a day, with the reservations that have been eating away
Everything on the menu at least once, and that their
Exercise limit to the amount of exercise the "average" American receives each day.
Therefore, if he is about to limit his walk on the day (measured by
Bring a pedometer) would have to grab a cab or find another way
To get from point A to point B without walking. Predictably, he gains a lot
Weight, (although the rapidness of weight gain was alarming -
First, 10 pounds in one week) but it is real evidence that their health is the most
fearsome. At the end of the second week, their doctors,
originally adopted its experiment (with some reservations,
course) were practically him to stop begging. Apart from the
Experiment itself, "Super Size Me" is peppered with data on the fast-food industry
and several interviews with industry insiders.

I finally found the film enjoyable, and something informative (although
have read Eric Schlosser's Fast Food Nation,
much of the information is old news), but there missing something that is hard to understand;
Perhaps the movie needs a bit more substance and cold hard reality
Instead of constantly watching him eat. However, I understand
supplemental materials on the DVD are very informative
And even includes an interview with Schlosser, so perhaps more
access to information can be found there. Spurlock is a great presenter, however, because
He is just a guy who has a lot of charm and good
presence of the camera. It was entertaining and likable enough to really
Illegal concern when his state of health was so obviously beginning to be
Once. Ironically, his girlfriend (and now wife) is a vegan chef, so
is slightly humorous to see their preparation of a menu of detoxification for him
Using the most apropos vegetables to clean your system.

The goal of most documentaries is to present a thesis and then not only
Demostrarlo, but to provide supporting evidence. Although the thesis of "
Super Size Me" is a sort of conclusion, Spurlock directed to provide
us with the evidence that is not the whole film in a wide
"Well, duh! "That is what kind of waiting to enter the movie.
If you have seen or plan to see this movie and are interested in
matter, I recommend reading Schlosser Fast Food Nation
to obtain further information on the business of fast food.
It is a very interesting read and make a good companion piece to this
Documentary. 6 / 10 - Shelly
