Super engórdame
Sinopsis(1)
En la película, Spurlock sigue una dieta de 30 días (desde febrero de 2003) durante los cuales subsiste en su totalidad con la alimentación y la compra de artículos exclusivamente de McDonald's. La película documenta los efectos que tiene este estilo de vida en la salud física y psicológica, y explora la influencia de las industrias de la comida rápida, incluyendo la forma en que se alimenta a la mala nutrición para su propio beneficio. Durante el rodaje, Spurlock comía en los restaurantes McDonald's tres veces al día, llegando a consumir un promedio de 5000 kcal (el equivalente de 9,26 Big Macs) por jornada durante el experimento.

El coraje de Spurlock para someterse a un tratamiento de un mes de comer en el McDonald’s merece reconocimiento, sin mencionar el legado positivo de la película en la difusión de la educación orgánica. Pero cien minutos, con tantos desvíos nada interesantes, es demasiado. Y tampoco le favorece que fuera hecho de forma tan primitiva.

I’m lovin’ it... A documentary about a man who decided not to eat or drink anything apart from McDonald’s products. And all the while his health was monitored by specialists and doctors. The space between separate daily we get filler in the form of “specials" such as the problem of gaining weight, the influence of advertising, the consequences of school canteen food and many other problems that people in the USA are currently facing. Logically, the greatest source of this “evil" are multi-national fast food chains. The whole thing seems absolutely one-sided and over extreme, but despite this and maybe because of this it is really fascinating and occasionally entertaining.

Admittedly, I haven't had McD since I saw Super Size Me :-) So you can say that the documentary was very beneficial for me. I'd welcome some kind of "sequel" after 5 years to see how much the numbers have changed.

"Hello, my name is Morgan Spurlock and I would like to make a documentary that will make me famous and that will stop me having to awkwardly introduce myself to you before my next film. You know, most of the interesting topics have been brought up by Michael Moore (Hi Mike!), but how about a look at the fast food industry? That would be good, wouldn't it? I think so, too. Because I'm good. Now you can get ready to spend an hour forty watching me gorge and willingly destroying myself for popularity, exaggerate, vomit for effect, pretend to be on the finish line of a marathon and manage to talk to doctors, moralize, visit a few schools... Oh, and my girlfriend will also come on camera to tell you what my erection problems are right now, and she and I will have a touching phone call at the most difficult moment. By the way, I hope you won't be offended by the fact that it will be terribly one-sided." Ummm.... If such a comment had preceded Super Size Me, I would have been more satisfied. After the documentary "I'm doing this for you, so feel sorry for me" experience, however, I have to say that the feature film Fast Food Nation turned out much better. Two stars are only for the good idea and a few scenes.__P.S. No, I don't go to McDonald’s.
