Reviews
Sight And Sound - Linklater writes great dialogue....FAST FOOD NATION sees missed connections and divisions, resignation and atomisation: in short, the slow sad seep of arbitrary, intransigent reality, New York Times - A comprehensive critique of contemporary American life....It's a mirror and a portrait, and a movie as necessary and nourishing as your next meal, Film Comment - FAST FOOD NATION is a horror movie in the guise of a genial message film: it has funny, even goofy moments, but its implications -- grounded as they are in Schlosser's painstaking reportage -- are dead serious and excruciating to contemplate, Entertainment Weekly - Naturally, a subject this right-on draws a right-on cast. Kris Kristofferson, Avril Lavigne, and Ethan Hawke pitch in, Empire - Gross and engrossing, Total Film - The most radical movie you will see this year
Consumer Advice
Contains strong language, sex and slaughterhouse images
Additional Information
FAST FOOD NATION is director Richard LinklaterÆs big screen adaptation of Eric SchlosserÆs best-selling book, which exposes the evils of corporate fast-food production. Co-written by Linklater and Schlosser, the film presents a wide tapestry of characters whose lives are all affected in one way or another by MickeyÆs, a fictionalized fast-food chain. At the top of the chain sits Don Henderson (Greg Kinnear), a MickeyÆs marketing VP who is shocked to discover that a high faecal count has shown up in his companyÆs burgers. Sylvia (Catalina Sandino Moreno), Raul (Wilmer Vilderrama), and Coco (Ana Claudia Talancon) are illegal Mexican immigrants who have found employment in the grotesque plant that produces those same burgers, working under the evil watch of supervisor Mike (Bobby Cannavale). Ashley (Amber Johnson) works the counter at a local MickeyÆs, but when she befriends a group of politically charged college students (Lou Taylor Pucci, Avril Lavigne), she thinks twice about her job. Along the way, several more characters are introduced (played by Kris Kristofferson, Ethan Hawke, and Bruce Willis), who voice the concerns expressed in SchlosserÆs non-fiction account. Linklater takes a leisurely approach to his otherwise in-your-face material, allowing certain stories to play themselves out before moving on to another. The result is a film that sneaks up on viewers. However, by the time it reaches its powerful conclusion, the filmmakers' point becomes painfully clear.

I am so happy with my latest Doctor Who purchase. I definitely got my money's worth. The item was well packaged, came exactly as described and it arrived earlier than expected which is always nice. Communication between me and the seller was spot on. Overall, the experience was an extremely positive one. 10/10 for this eBay seller.

    wake up people.

    'There's shit in our burgers' and 'that's why they're only 99 cents' are just two lines from this film. it should be watched by everyone. I personally won't be going anywhere near a fast food place ever again.

    Fast delivery. Very competitive price. Excellent seller

    I am reading the book and I thought that watching the film will illustrate even better the ideas written in it.

    Fast Food Nation

    Great cast rubbish film,ive never been so bored watching a movie in my whole life. At best it just made me feel hungry only when i had the strength to keep my eyes open mind you. It was supposed to be hard hitting lifting lid on what really happens behide close doors of the fast food industry,but the film was scatty and all over the place,and some of the acting was just terrible. And yes i have read the book. So unless you are clinically insane or a insomniac my advice is to avold this movie at all cost and go and have a cheese burger instead.

    Fast Food Nation - Worth a watch??? Not convinced!..

    I have spoken to people who have read the book and said it has changed the way they eat forever but the movie definitely doesn't match up to the high expectation I held.. It's directed in a movie format, whereas I was expecting more of a 'supersize me' documentary style, which would have been more appropriate and informative.. I can't help but feel this holds back on the true realities of fast food (although it does contain some dreadful scenes of cattle being slaughtered at the end).

    Fast Food Nation

    I've read the book and it confirmed my suspicions about what we've all been eating and I recomend that everybody should read the book and at least watch this film. The film isn't as hard hitting as the book, as the information is brought to us through the eyes of several characters, who are based on people that Eric Schlosser interviewed for his book. The fast food industry is seen through the eyes of several people from the Mexican illegal immigrants who work in the slaughterhouses and burger-flipping high school students to the corporate marketing man sent to investigate the source of their meat-patties. If you care about what you eat and society please, please, please watch this film and read the book, but don't expect this to be an easy film to watch because it isn't. The last scene ...
