I found Spurlock to be too ingratiating. His agenda is just different than Moore's (and it's one that more people can agree with) so you don't feel he was too heavy handed because you agree with his ideals. Had you agreed with Moore's ideas, you wouldn't feel he was as heavy handed as you do.If his target was all fast food and not just McD's, why did he only eat McD's food 3 meals a day. Why not pizza, tacos, fish and chips or other just as bad for you foods?
Honestly, "subtle" is not a word I'd use to describe this movie.
