In what way did it not succeed?
"Super Size Me" was a success, so picking out something negative in it is tough. The only part of this movie that could be called unsuccessful, is that not enough people have seen it, or been touched by it enough to make them stop what they are doing.
Did it touch you or affect you? How?
This movie affected me greatly! I, like the many other millions of American, love fast food. Although it has never been part of my daily diet, I would say that I ate it a lot. After seeing this film, I have cut back on my fast-food intake, and no longer buy chicken nuggets from anywhere, and refuse to support McDonalds in anyway, shape, or form. I was upset in the fact that many McDonalds' did not even have their nutrition facts available for their customers to see. I believe that the fast food industry, as a whole, is manipulative, and dishonest, and Morgan Spurlock's movie "Super Size Me", opened my eyes to that.
Would you recommend it / repeat your experience of it?
YES! This movie is a definite MUST SEE. I have already seen it two times, and would enjoy watching it a third. When watching on DVD you get extra features such as, more interviews, and bonus footage. Super Size Me is the greatest documentary I have ever seen.
What if anything would you have done differently?
I would not change a single thing about the entire movie. If I did, it would take away part of what Morgan has already gotten across.
Outline the plot and program.
"Super Size Me" is a movie that takes a look into some of the unknowns, of fast food! It shows the way it affects your body, and your metal health. Morgan Spurlock goes on a 31 day feast! He eats fast food three times a day, just to show us what will happen. While doing this, Morgan supplies a look into how our food is prepared. The overall point of this movie is to explain, with a real life example, that fast food is UNHEALTHY!
Did it remind you of anything? What?
This film reminded me of the things you don't normally think of. It reminded me that America might be one of the most powerful countries, but it is also THE FATTEST country as well. It reminded me that large corperations are not always the most honest. This movie takes you to that place in your mind that you try to forget about, but shouldn't. It reminds you to be aware of your body, and to take care of yourself. Just because you are able to do something, doesn't mean you should.
