Reality is unacceptable

When I got up in the morning, the sun outside the window was already very bright.

Rinse and wash, it is almost noon.

Found a movie called "Fast Food Empire". Be prepared to help your appetite drop.

After reading it, not only did it not help the appetite, but it made the situation worse.

The film tells three stories, each of which seems to have become themes and closely connected.

It is a series of things surrounding the fast food company MICKYS.

There is a middle-aged man dispatched by MICKYS headquarters to inspect the work.

When I arrived at the cattle farm, all I saw were lies and deceit.

It was deceived by the beautiful appearance of the production line, fooled by the savage logic of the supplier, and spit on by the clerk of its own branch.

All in all, it can very well become a film that exposes reality, but the director did not. He also used two other stories to enhance the depth of the story, and put all the perspectives of all parties in one film, so that It has a persuasive tension.

The second paragraph is a complete tragedy. Exposing exploitation. Those Mexicans who are not formal American citizens come to the United States secretly, wanting to make money. But I don't know that I am being unequally exploited.

From the initial hesitation to work in the production workshop, it seems to have seen hope. As a result, what we saw was the exploitation of cannibalism.

In order for a beautiful girl to work in a factory, she must betray her body. The man was injured at work, but for his own benefit, the Ministry of Manpower had to impose some crimes on the wounded and relied on compensation for work-related injuries.

Everything is like exposing how poor the lives of Mexicans who have immigrated illegally are. It is intriguing that at the end of the movie, there are still many Mexicans who are desperate to go to the United States. And the guide, handed over is authentic American fast food.

The third paragraph is to arrange a female student AMBER who works in MICKYS. Her appearance seems to express the mentality of a young radical who lives in the mainstream white society but is conscious.

A few young people wanted to stop all these inhuman things. The cruelty to the workers, the cruelty to the livestock, the cruelty to the customers.

They want to release the cow from the fence. As a result, the failure ended. They wanted to open the fence surrounding the cows, but the cows didn't want to escape at all.

This not only reflects the objective tragic reality, but also shows that such beef can not be considered healthy.

It’s worth mentioning that the supporting characters in it are my favorites. For example, Bruce Willie, who plays the middle supplier, has only one dialogue scene, but his expression is cynical and rough, and he jumped out alive and well. Excellent acting skills.

I also saw Avril Lavigne in the movie. This rebellious little rock queen didn’t make many appearances in the movie, but it can be seen that the director likes her, and her own performance is also very satisfying and treats inequality. The kind of rebellion and rebellion of things, young people, do some behaviors of patriotism, society and human beings, seemingly rebellious, but it is the most just thing. Although unsuccessful, it is very gratifying. There are still people in the world who are willing to stand up and condemn the collusion between government and businessmen and the dark industry.

Another thing to say is that the employee sent by MICKYS to investigate the situation is the father in "Little Girl Sunshine". However, an employee in MICKYS who spit on a hamburger played his son in "Little Girl Sunshine". A magical combination. I really like their performance in "Little Sunshine", and I am very satisfied with their performance this time. For their liking, maybe it is because they are always participating in some slightly offbeat movies.

After the movie is over, I make a good meal, and I have no appetite at all.

Maybe when I eat MCDONLD or KFC in the future, I won't be so happy anymore.

    We're just cows who don't want to get out of the fence
