About this product

Product Information

In this hilarious yet informative documentary, debut director Morgan Spurlock makes himself the victim of a cruel experiment: he puts himself on a 30-day diet of nothing but McDonald's food. Eating three meals a day exclusively from McDonald's, Spurlock's health quickly deteriorates. The film documents the process from beginning to end, with Spurlock and his doctors making observations and monitoring the changes to his energy level, moods, liver and kidney function, and obviously his weight. As viewers might predict, Spurlock gains weight at an alarming rate, and during this process he offers a shocking lesson about the serious problem of obesity in America. Clearly McDonald's receives the brunt of the blame, as Spurlock shows how the fast-food restaurant directs its advertising at small children, who are converted into faithful consumers of the brand--and its free toy giveaways, bright colors, and Ronald McDonald clown--for life. Spurlock also examines the quality of the food itself, showing the processes by which favorite products like McNuggets are made. He also shows the proliferation of McDonald's chains both in the U.S. and worldwide. Meanwhile, Spurlock's girlfriend--a vegan chef--observes Spurlock's experiment with disgust and disdain, providing one of many comic elements to the film. Educational, fun, and at times downright gross, SUPER SIZE ME takes a different approach to illustrating America's obsession with fast food.

    Engineered food

    I am walking evidence of just how destructive the garbage sold at fast food chains can be on the body. Since passing by the drive-through windows and exercising moderately, I have lost 70 pounds in less than one year, no longer take any of the three blood pressure medications I had been on, and just feel a whole lot better. People may think the movie is extreme, but it is a wake up call for anyone struggling to lose weight and improve their health and quality-of-life.

  • Amazing and informative look at Fast Food!

    I have never been the world's biggest fan of fast food - as a vegetarian, the choices on many a Fast Food menu are not designed with the likes of me in mind! That said, I had been known to venture on occasion to Mcdonalds and indulged in their French Fries....but this movie, well, it puts a different perspective on things! I was interested in seeing this having heard much about the film, and I must say that morgan Spurlock makes an interesting and entertaining splash into his first role as Director and star of a 96 minutes eye popping look into the world of Fast Food. The premise of this being Spurlock ate nothing but McDonalds 3 times a day for a month - including full sugar versions of Soda and if a clerk asked him if he would like to "Supersize " his menu...that he did! He does this ...

  • Clever Documentary Informative, Eye-Opening

    In today’s fast-paced world, fast food has gone from being an occasional dining option to a staple in the diets of the majority. Thus, it should come as no surprise that obesity has become a nationwide epidemic, second only to tobacco as the leading cause of preventable death in America. In the midst of putting on all the extra pounds, America’s self-responsibility has been abandoned in favor of the more fashionable (and much easier) act of putting the blame on someone else. The peak of this insanity occurred in 2002, when two obese teenagers sued McDonald’s, claiming they were responsible for their atrocious physical state. Despite common knowledge that fast food shouldn’t be part of a regular diet, it would seem there were still some who weren’t aware of this and thought Big Macs and ...

  • Catalyst for Personal Change

    I was curious more than anything else, and had no preconceived ideas except I wondered about a gross out I'd heard about (there's a mild not-too-explicit vomit scene). When confronted with medical evidence of severe liver impacts to an otherwise healthy young male after 21 days or so of high fat/salt/sugar diet - I received a loud wakeup call. I watched a low res HULU upload of this film which prompted my eBay purchase of the "Super Size Me" DVD. Alex Jamieson (Morgan Spurlock's adorable wife) wrote a book "The Great American Detox Diet" that got Morgan back on track after his 30 days of self abuse. You get to meet her in the movie. I was motivated by this film to make changes in my eating habits. I bought Alex's book, and started my own detox diet. That led to a subsequent trial of ...

  • Super Sized Morgan Spurlock is Super Sized Awesome

    Morgan Spurlock is the star, writer and director of Super Size Me - the documentary of Spurlock's quest on a 30-day all McDonalds diet. Morgan Spurlock sets out to live like much of America's fastfood nation - no working out, soda and McDonalds for every meal, etc. What happens to Spurlock isn't surprising - his health immediately deteriorates, he becomes agitated and depressed, and he gains massive amounts of weight. Super Size Me is a great adventure that is shocking in many ways: 1) Morgan Spurlock's decisions to consciously do this... 2) This is a diet that a substantial portion of our country lives on! 3) Though we would all expect the Super Size Me diet to ruin one's health... it happens faster than anyone (including the doctors) could predict The movie is a great ride and one that ...
