Storyline

The entire fast food racket was controlled by two 'clowns' Jack and Mickey D. Until mafioso Bobby arrived, now he sells a million cheeseburgers a year. Bobby has excellent employees and it is made sure that customers don't get too picky about fat percentages and certain ingredients. Everything is strictly taken care of by the 'customer complaint department'. But still the fast food business remains a tough business when trouble arises with a certain employee.

User Reviews

not filling

This short is a parody of various Martin Scorsese films (mostly "Casino" and "Goodfellas", but a dash of "Taxi Driver" and "Raging Bull" as well) but set in a burger joint. Tom Fahn does an all right DeNiro. But Johnathan should just stick with directing. At 11 minutes it gets old, it could have been cut down be half. A few laughs, but a FAR better "Goodfellas" parody was a skit on "Mr. Show". Not to be confused with the other 4 films named "Fast Food" or the delightful videogame from the early 80's of the same name.
