Mac and Me (1988)

Looking back at bad films, I have seen (98 movies items)

"It's about alien called Mac, who befriends a boy, discovers the joys of fast food and soft drinks, and is on the run from the government. Mac and Me, is one big, long, commercial of a film, and has all of the subtly of a sledgehammer, hitting a groin."

Films and the critics who hate them (732 movies items)

Having seen it done so much better by Spielberg doesn't help, of course. - Richard Harrington, Washington Post"

The scenes in the McDonalds were all shot in City of Industry in California (just outside Los Angeles). The set was an actual McDonalds that was built specifically for filming television commercials and for crew member trainin"
