I went in expecting a standard uplifting movie about someone creating something significant. That expectation was met in a roundabout way, since the film draws inspiration from a questionable situation. It isn't actually about the McDonald brothers or their story, but rather about the McDonald’s fast food chain itself, how it expanded so quickly worldwide, and the individual responsible for that growth. The movie maintains a mostly neutral stance, though it tends to emphasize what appears to be the driving force behind McDonald’s current success. It resembles another familiar American narrative—like those surrounding Apple or Facebook—but instead of focusing on the original founders who put in all the effort, it centers on someone who arrived later and claimed credit for their work. Ray Kroc begins as a traveling salesman, not particularly impressive at first. Then he encounters two brothers who have developed an innovative kitchen setup and a fast-food service model. He becomes very interested in their operation and partners with them. The film then shows how his ideas lead to considerable wealth and shape the company’s future. It's a pleasant movie, especially thanks to Michael Keaton’s performance. It is also well-directed. From a cinematic perspective, it’s good, but from a moral standpoint, it raises questions. It highlights weaknesses in our society and systems, demonstrating how some individuals will resort to manipulative tactics to achieve success. While you can't entirely fault them—they had their own struggles to overcome—the film may inspire certain viewers. If you frequently visit McDonald’s, this movie is worth seeing. Otherwise, it offers a worthwhile glimpse into the reality behind things. _7/10_
