Watched the film last night. DH just LOVED it. I am such a big Michael Keaton fan. He did a super job.

@Group 5 minus 1 Much to my surprise (having read the lukewarm reviews of it) I loved this film! It held my interest throughout and Keaton, as always, was excellent. It was rather a fun film, even if Keaton wasn't the most ethical person around, and the acting by all the main actors (him and the "McDonald brothers" was excellent. I also think that one reason I enjoyed this film so much was I remember when our city got its first McDonald's. In other words, I was around for the rise of fast food, and remember before the rise of fast food, so I thought the film was extremely interesting and also brought back a lot of memories, including all the fashions and other period pieces. I recommended this film to a lot of people!

I watched it a few weeks ago and had the same reaction. It was very good and held my attention.

I thought The Founder was a good movie. I grew up in Glenview, IL the home of the second McDonald's. I remember when the first one opened in DesPlaines, IL. They were both instant hits.

I just mentioned the early days of fast food in the Community Chat forum under a Wendy's thread, so I'm commenting here again (I don't remember having posted my post above) how fun this film was to see the early days of the fast food industry, which I remember. I highly recommend this film.
