Rating: 3/5 -- Before this, I hadn't grasped that the notion of "product placement" is in fact passé; now it's all about "co-promotion". Full Review

[W]ith Spurlock, irony, slapstick and complete immersion is as much a part of the documentary equation as information.

It's goofy fun for the most part...

THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER SOLD is even more amusing than SUPER SIZE ME, the documentary that put Mr. Spurlock on the moviemaking map...

Rating: 3/5 -- A fun way to learn a little more about the worlds of sponsorship and advertising, but its lack of depth will ultimately leave audiences dissatisfied. Full Review

Rating: 2.4/5 -- For a film that is 85 minutes long, The Greatest Movie Ever Sold feels like an interminable slog. Full Review

Product Description:

Director Morgan Spurlock (SUPER SIZE ME, 30 DAYS) examines the increased proliferation of branding in every aspect of our lives while attempting to persuade big-name brands to sponsor his irreverent exposé. Companies love to push their products, and it seems like everywhere we go, someone is trying to sell us something. But have you ever wondered what goes on behind closed doors at some of the biggest advertising agencies in the world' In this eye-opening documentary, viewers follow Spurlock as he convinces a variety of high-profile sponsors to let him pitch their products as "The Greatest," while still maintaining complete control over his creative vision -- an arrangement that's become increasingly rare in the high-stakes entertainment industry.
