Will you still eat your burger even though there is s*** in it?

The answer is likely, because life is full of s*** as well. The urban legend of a fried rat didn't turn people off the chicken chain as well. We have hear so much of the evils of fast food, but few can resist the temptation of it. Strange. It's not even delicious in the first place.

Expect no Super Sized Me. Made up of an ensemble cast of Greg Kinnear, Ethan Hawke, Bruce Willis and Ashley Johnson, each of them tell a different story which attempts to preach than convince. It is also unfortunately rated M18 when the target should be teens.

Fast Food Nation attempts to look at the industry from a marketer, improvished Mexican immigrant, student counter staff, and cynical youths points of view. The end result was long dialogues and very separate directionless stories.

The final few scenes were very powerful though. It made me stay off burgers for some time. I havn't eaten my favourite CJ yet since the movie. Yet.
