  • Anvilicious: Even if you like the film, it's hard to argue against this one.
  • Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped: While there's no real denying that this is a bit of a Captain Obvious Aesop (excessive fast food is harmful to your health? Really?), a case can be made for this; the movie does spend a bit of time pointing out the reasons why this is the case, some of which are not entirely what you'd expect.
  • Squick: Numerous examples.
    • Explicit footage of gastric bypass surgery... set to the tune of the "Blue Danube Waltz".
    • When Morgan ate his first Super Sized McDonald's combo and promptly vomited.
    • The huge hair he found in the parfait.
  • Straw Man Has a Point: While people may disagree with the movie's argument that the blame only on the fast food corporations and not on personal responsibility, the movie does make clear that the actions of said food companies are not helping the situation.
