n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The Greatest Movie Ever Sold dares to expose the fact that films use product placement (GASP!)! However, if you're a semi-intelligent human being, you already know this. This movie doesn't really bring any new information to the table and, therefore, it just feels flat. It's entertaining, and I do now want to try POM Wonderful, but it doesn't have the heart that Super Size Me has.

The greatest movie ever sold.It is not about the greatest movie ever sold. It is the most sold movie. I hope everybody is aware that it is not a documentary, but one big commercial disguised as a documentary.Very cleaver of course.I have been in the USA a couple of times, and I can't shake the thought that the situation described in the movie Idiocrazy (2006) is coming to reality soon (first in the USA). And that is the brilliance of this movie. Not to watch, but it is probably worthwhile for the maker of the movie. And therefore 7 out of 10 of using the numb system and people watching this.

It 'could' have been a good idea but he just blew it on every level imaginable. There seems to be a tendency these days for people to think that ANY documentary, no matter what it's about or who does it, is taking the high road. Well this charlatan just proved this is certainly not the case. I was really dubious when I saw his fast food documentary where he overstuffed himself like a foie gras duck just so he could make a documentary about SOMETHING, but now I am positive this guy is just grasping at straws to put out ANYTHING, anything at all. Watching him makes me think he probably saw Michael Moore and thought "Hey, I can do that and make a good buck" and then proceeded to make garbage docs like this one. Honestly, he should be on late night TV selling Sham Wows along with 'Vince'. After doing this piece of %^$#, that's probably where we'll see him next.

Spurlock continues being a stunt-documentarian. He takes an important issue and boils it down to something easy to comprehend and entertaining. He is far more concerned with holding the audiences attention than educating or asking them to think. It's a one joke movie, but an entertaining one. Like always he touches on genuinely fascinating ideas but doesn't explore them. I was very interested in the city with no advertising, but the section was too short. The conversations with filmmakers are rather interesting, as are their stories, but again Spurlock seems scared to really offend anyone. It was funny to see companies more interested in slamming the competition than making something funny and informative. A good easy watch, but shouldn't be watched for educational purposes.
