The Plot: A marketing executive (Kinnear) for a fast food giant travels to the Colorado town that's home to feedlots and packing plant that fuels his business. His goal: to quietly investigate whether cow manure has found its way into his product.
THE BUZZ: Richard Linklater's much-anticipated take on Eric Schlosser's best-seller underwhelmed at Cannes, where audiences cited a lack of cohesion and emotional resonance. Well, half of that criticism could be applied to every Linklater film. So what gives? Maybe it's backlash ... maybe McDonald's wins after all ... oooh, is that Avril Lavigne?
