Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/medical

By hook or by crook who is the rise of the M archers: in summary this film covers the story between two brothers Richard "Dick" McDonald [Nick Offerman:] co-creator of McDonald's, who is the real brain behind McDonald's  Maurice "Mac" McDonald [John Carroll Lynch:] co-creator of McDonald's and really wants to make his brother's dream happen even if it costs him his health. But eventually they meet Ray Kroc [Michael Keaton:] in 1954, he is a struggling milkshake machine salesman; he has the characteristics of a snake, which the brothers purchase some machines off him. But they are unaware of his characteristics to begin with; he has big ideas for their dreams.

The framework and pacing of this 115 minutes film is including art and comedy in some aspects; this is all clean and tidy as it settles down to smoothly tell/show us this story, the art comes into effect where we see Kroc driving from location to location with these clouds in the sky there are other artistic elements and comical moments such as this slow motion effect of someone eating this McDonald's burger with this kind of glorious music in the background

Character developments and performances: on both counts they are excellent, because of what I know about these main three characters that's who they were as in real life or just to cover my back that who it has always been told like; so Nick Offerman as Richard "Dick" McDonald and John Carroll Lynch as Maurice "Mac" McDonald had this wholesome image for McDonald, okay the way they were going they were going to have a comfortable life, hard-working and wholesome image for McDonald's. But Michael Keaton as Roy Kroc saw this family and business with their wholesome image and saw what he could do and more without giving too much of the film away. Keaton as Roy Kroc really does him justice and is definitely the spearhead in this film, but also this is very much a cast performance.

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; with the story about the rise of the M archers, with excellent well rounded performances, I decided to award another mark based on Michael Keaton's performance, as overtime you will understand that Roy Kroc is/wasn't a nice person and I am putting it politely. This film has some awards accredited to its name; 1 Winner Capri, Hollywood 2016 Capri Actor Award Michael Keaton Tied with Andrew Garfield for Hacksaw Ridge (2016). 5 Nominees all from the same award ceremony/event AARP Movies for Grownups Awards 2017 Movies for Grownups Award Best Actor Michael Keaton,  Best Time Capsule and Best Buddy Picture John Carroll Lynch Nick Offerman.
