Linklater enlists his favorites (and Avril Levigne?!) interesting narrative take on Schlosser’s nonfiction. Threads pick up and drop off loosely, and no one except the meat packing industry really “wins”. The odd thing about this message movie is that, like so many others of its kind, it’s unlikely to draw viewers who aren’t already aware of and already receptive to its lessons.

This is not the documentary I expected to see. Instead, this was a fictionalized story with which focused on several key points: migrant workers, teenage fast food workers, and the cow slaughtering plant.

For facts and history, read the book.

Lots of cameos.

Ethan Hawke was a natural.
