   Is 'the founder' a good movie?

   • “The Founder” is mesmerized by its hero, McDonald’s chain founder Ray Kroc (Michael Keaton), but horrified by how he built his empire. That kind of ambivalence is great; in fact it’s a hallmark of good drama.

   Is the founder a good book?

   • However, aside from business dealings and accidental friendships, The Founder is short on personal details. It hints that his love life is important but vaguely describes their dramatic directions. Also, if you read between the lines, it appears that Kroc is quite uncaring and an unforgiving business man but instead exalts his tenacity.

   Is 'the founder' an anti-war film?

   • But there are too many moments when “The Founder” becomes a business-drama variant of that war film problem identified by Francois Truffaut: it’s hard to make a truly anti-war film because war is inherently cinematic, and when you show it, people get swept up in the action anyway.

   Is John Lee Hancock's 'the founder' a good movie?

   • John Lee Hancock's The Founder is the perfect movie for a country that has just chosen a vapid brand for its chief executive.
