A great movie about a businessman. Kroc might not have spared this percentage to these brothers.

Mixed feelings due to the years. He has a rather unpleasant character.

Having the tenacity and perseverance to get rich on someone else's idea. Conflicting feelings from the years.

I really liked the movie, but he's still a fraud. Although the brothers are in a sense to blame themselves.

It's a very interesting story, but I agree with the comments about the conflicting feelings after…

almost the same emotions were felt when watching Elvis from how the producer profited from someone else's talent. And here's a Croc. it seems like he really founded such an empire and why not make money, but why not honestly pay a single percentage? as if he remained a Vulture))

@Dear_Wendy: Endless greed and jealousy of McDonald's, as if it were exclusively his child, became his essence. When he divorced his wife, he said that he would rather die than give her at least one share of this company.

It's emotionally difficult for everyone to watch this movie, as a business manual, of course, and it's very sad for the brothers.

And yet, the secret of success is not only in perseverance, but also in luck -
to be in the right place at the right time, to meet the right people.

The film is interesting, but the main character really causes conflicting feelings. You seem to admire how he created an empire out of one burger joint. But he stole the name and the business. For the sake of justice, he could clarify about the brothers that it was originally their idea, but he only developed it…
