Directed by John Lee Hancock (SAVING MR. BANKS), THE FOUNDER features the true story of how Ray Kroc (Michael Keaton), a struggling salesman from Illinois, met Mac and Dick McDonald, who were running a burger operation in 1950s Southern California. Kroc was impressed by the brothers' speedy system of making the food and saw franchise potential. Writer Robert Siegel (THE WRESTLER) details how Kroc maneuvered himself into a position to be able to pull the company from the brothers and create a billion-dollar empire. The film also stars Laura Dern as Ray Kroc’s first wife, Ethel; John Carroll Lynch as Mac McDonald; and Nick Offerman as Dick McDonald.

Sad story how evil an greed can cheat an steal a burger chain from good people who started it. Success is NOT from persistance, its finding ways to LIE, CHEAT, AN STEAL IT. I dont think I will be eating at another McDonalds now knowing it was STOLEN. Find someone with a good idea...THEN STEAL IT AN MAKE IT YOUR OWN. Sad very sad story. Not only did this evil man steal McDonalds, he also stole another man's wife, an broke his word on a Contract. This guy is one sick evil man Lesson from this movie...DONT TRUST SALESMEN. That is why it says in the Bible it will be very hard for the rich men to make it to heaven. It would be easier to stick a camel through the head of a needle. Very sad movie. I wish I didnt see it.

It's just morally wrong, it shows McDonald's in a bad way, I'll never eat their again knowing sum trash pos stole the idea, most fkd up part is when Keaton brings flowers to the brother in the hospital just to say hey idc u almost died but here's a blank check who tf does that

This movie basically tells you that the modern day company McDonald's, was formed out of a giant sham. The movie was great but after watching this, I don't think I can ever enjoy eating there ever again knowing that two brothers lost the rights to their name.
