Super Size Me

Strangely exuberant, for a muckraking documentary--but I guess that's what it takes to get the message across these days. Morgan Spurlock's enthusiasm is certainly welcome; it's probably the only thing that got him through his hellish, one month, fast food only experiment. Just as with the book Fast Food Nation--though perhaps not as scathingly--Super Size Me stands as an indictment of the industry, as well as us consumers who give it so much power. An absorbing and important film.
