Reviews


91
Christian Science Monitor - Peter Rainer
Viewers expecting a blistering attack on the fast-food business, or an Altmanesque panorama, will be disappointed, but it's a sensitive and humane piece of work.
90
L.A. Weekly - Scott Foundas
Like two of the year's other standout American films, Kelly Reichardt's "Old Joy" and Ryan Fleck's "Half Nelson," it's a movie of ideas in which the ideas flow effortlessly out of the material instead of being plastered on top with a heavy cement roller (as in "Crash," "Babel" and "Little Children").
83
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
Naturally, a subject this right-on draws a right-on cast. Kris Kristofferson, Avril Lavigne, and Ethan Hawke pitch in.
80
The New York Times - A.O. Scott
It's a mirror and a portrait, and a movie as necessary and nourishing as your next meal.
75
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
It's less an expose of junk-food culture than a human drama, sprinkled with sly, provoking wit, about how that culture defines how we live.
