I really, really liked it. I nominate Keaton and the screenplay.

Fantastic. Keaton is terrific in this.

I preferred the flat, boring McDouble I ate before going to this more than this flat, boring movie.

I was really looking forward to it but it ended up disappointing me. Bland stuff throughout, and the never-stopping Carter Burwell score annoyed the shit out of me. Keaton is good though.

Keaton is great and the story is interesting that makes it easy to watch but Hancock's work is really dull and uninspiring.

Slightly above average biopic with Keaton in fine form. I often find myself saying "goooolden arches" out loud in his voice in the car whenever I drive by a McDonalds now...

Could've used a far more cynical director for the material, but Keaton, Lynch, Offerman and the screenplay nearly make up for it.

It was decent. Keaton's extending his wonderful streak... but yeah, the film needed some sort of edge (terrible word, but I can't think of a better one at the moment). For instance, I think it would have fared better had it been more like Thank You For Smoking rather than straight biopic.

I was actually surprised when it was over, because the movie had gone by so fast. The film is very much about two different visions of America as reflected in two different approaches to business.

It's not bad, and Keaton is actually great in it, but it is so badly edited that it becomes too fucking long. Like, the endless scenes of people wanting to open a McDonald's??? We get it, dude.

Lackluster is almost every way. The cast seemed to be trying really hard but the writing was weak and the handling of Dern's character was garbage. Waste of time.

Doesn’t have much going for it aside from Keaton.
