I was wondering why make a sequel, but after watching I'm super glad he did. It got us laughing at parts and made us shocked at parts. Can't believe the farming industry is so messed up. Next one should look into "vegan" products which are just soy based and industrially created products that are terrible for the planet as well.

As before, its a well done doc by a talented filmmaker that makes you hate everything about the situation food is currently in.

The movie is pretty good, i wouldn't say great. I think they could have done a lot more research in their chicken burger research, and also felt they were a little cruel to the chickens! The cruelty isn't from the movie, it's from the supposed 'experts' from industry who are more concerned with$$ and numbers. Chicken industry is very cruel.

Like me, you're probably finding yourself wondering how you missed the news of Morgan Spurlock's original hit documentary Supersize Me getting a sequel. A series of events during the #MeToo movement pretty much blacklisted the film from any formal release. Like most things, time heals (or forgets) all, and now the documentary is here... The premise of this documentary revolves around not one singular brand or corporation, but trades one protein (beef) for another, in the form of the entire chicken industry. What Spurlock's new film fails to accomplish is any substantial shock value. We've probably all passed by videos/photos of chickens in cages at one time or another, or chicken slaughterhouses. Fifteen minutes of Google will unveil almost every topic discussed in this film, from USDA grading, to selective chicken breeding, to real nutrition content of 'healthy' chicken sandwiches. Unlike it's predecessor, viewers of the sequel will not be subjected to a man using his body as a test laboratory, but rather see Spurlock detail the process of farm-to-restaurant supply throughout his own journey into the quick service industry. The primary theme throughout documentary revolves around the power of several corporations controlling virtually all of the chicken farming in America. At the end of the day this documentary is unlikely to transform carnivores into vegans, nor curb consumer habits, but it may make us think twice about the struggles of the small American farmer amid corporate greed.

Morgan does a great job to showcase the different actors in the value chain of the chicken industry. The chicken are treated unnaturally to make them grow fast, the farmers are treated poorly so that they are in debt, the big chicken companies using clever marketing tricks to provide a false perception of the chicken product. so now what? well, i think the consumers has the power by being active in promoting transparency and fair treatments of the people and animals in this value chain

Interesting film which does a great job of showing how the fast food/meat industry lies to us about the damage eating their food does to our health and cover up how horrifically the animals are treated. I don't agree with everything Spurlock does in the film and I don't think he goes far enough with what he shows, but still interesting to watch

Excellent film. Eye opening. Funny, accurate, controversial. Spurlock scores another urgent and necessary exposé on the eating culture in America. One might as well become vegetarian- you won't ever look at poultry the same way again.

I went into the movie ignorant, and came out educated...Morgan does a great job of showing how the fast food's tricks of language create a "health halo" over the things we eat. He shows how the multi-generational chicken farmers are getting CLUCKED, and how by giant, faceless, above reproach, by Chicken Industrial Complex. Some of the most diabolical Cluckers in the food game... It's a great eye opening movie and I hope it opens some more eyes...
