I think there's a saying that goes "The most dangerous person in the world is the man who has nothing left to lose". This movie was a brilliant portrait of a man who felt he had nothing left to lose.
@Mark Contreras Once Michael Douglas ' character got out of his car and started his "journey " through L.A., his sanity was already lost. But, You're right. When all else is gone, all we have left to hold onto is our soul.
The less some parts make sense though. This come across to me as a classic murican/Karen move! Can't get what they want, ask to speak to manager, still doesn't work, pull out a gun.
@@greaves1178 I see your point. But to me it more shows the frustration of watching your country and values all turned to shit. Like I said, you have to be older to understand and see the transformation.
LITERALLY! It'd be understandable if they had shut down the process to make breakfast at that time and they were out of ones to give, *but the breakfast was right fucking there.* What were they going to do, let it go bad?
The scene is epic of course, but pay attention to Sheila, she is loving the whole thing. She has been craving excitement in her life and is enjoying every moment of this.
The terrifying part is that America is now 1000 times worse than it was when this was filmed. I can’t even imagine what this dumpster fire will be like in another 30 years
true its because as you age people dont want to even look at you anymore. the pizaz of being young and having lots of hair is gone with age and this is for all on this planet!
The young lady working behind the counter, Sheila, also played the woman who George Constanza introduced himself to in the coffee shop in the episode where he decided to "do the opposite". "My name is George, I'm unemployed & I live with my parents"..."My name is Victoria, hello".
@Jimmy savile No, those boxes were under a heat lamp, which is meant to keep food warm. I think it was meant to show the breakfast was ready and they were going to just throw it out after 11:30. Because that's how food service often goes. Source: I've worked it.
The manager was one of those "by the book" stiffs who can't make reasonable compromises. Yes, they had technically stopped serving breakfast a few minutes earlier, but they still had items from the breakfast menu ready to go: the customer was going to pay for them - otherwise it would just go to trash. Best managers at fast food joints are people who can make reasonable compromises and this manager wasn't one of those people.
@Just Me Ugh that's terrible. Sorry to hear. I remember we had this older guy come in all the time and would always be annoyed that we messed up his order. Its like dude don't come here if you think it's thats bad! There's plenty other places! Lol
When I think of michael douglas I think of this movie. I never even watched it properly, the whole movie.. but some scenes just stucked in the head watching it while I was a teenager/kid.. and I still like to see the best scenes.. just portrays a "guy who had enough" perfectly.
yeah, exactly. you can see just how guilty and embarrassed he feels when he did that. it shows he's not just a psychopath, but someone who got beaten down so much throughout his life that he just turned to pulp.
One time Burger King refused to make me a Croissanwich ten minutes before breakfast was supposed to be over. I've always regretted not going back with an uzi to have it my way.

byron p ..................and it was MUCH better than the overrated Basic Instinct (in which I thought M.D. was TERRIBLY miscast). Glad this was the followup to it!
Underrated? How's this movie underrated? The reviews are very positive, It won the Edgar awards and was nominated for two others. Maybe it's a bit of a hidden gem nowdays, but it's certainly not underrated.
@@IDONTGETTHEPOINT By underrated he probably means underappreciated. You say it yourself, it's a hidden gem but the average joe doesn't know or care about this film sadly.
Pop culture always moves on to the next big hit, but everyone with a brain cell is still enjoying this movie as much as they did in 93. Check out the "the critical drinker" review on youtube: m.ua-cam.com/video/5mXg-NZWFr8/v-deo.html
Amazing how he never even once raised his voice. I wish I could be able to deliver such a calm demeanour after having been treated like shit my entire life for having “fit the mould” and then proceeding to be treated like trash. You make a good point. When a customer yells, they get good service. When a customer asks reasonably, they are told “no” repeatedly until the gun comes out. Fucking ridiculous. I hate how society has raised everyone to cow tow to the assholes who just yell to get what they want and treat the reasonable ones so badly.
Everything about this scene is hilarious - look at the goofy 'hamburger' hats they make the staff wear, look at Sheila's expressions - she's so bored and this little diversion has made her day!
When I was a teenager, I applied for a job at a fast food place. It was only going to be for a month over the summer, but part of the job was wearing one of those goofy hats. I took one look at it, asked: 'Do I *HAVE* to wear this thing while on duty or is it optional?' and when told it was not optional, i just walked out and looked for a different summer job, lol. Ain't no way I was gonna be caught wearing one of those things, even if everyone else was doing it too. I was a dumb fucking teenager who didn't really need that job, so I could easily afford to say no and walk off, though.
Sheila is a little doll. Michael Douglas is an exceptional actor, and this may be his best role ever. This movie is a gem, and it describes our culture to perfection.
@@johnlipinski2395 What I love about Douglas' performance is that he doesn't really 'know' what he's doing the whole day. He's just lashing out at everything we hate in society, but even the way he holds the machine gun stroking it nervously, firing it accidentally, with his vision becoming distorted is such a brilliant touch from him and the director. By the time we reach the ending we've forgotten we met him at a point where he'd already decided to murder his wife and child, and he's our hero. I wrote something years and years ago about this film and the columbine tragedy. Eric and Dylan wanted to 'destroy' their school, however when they got the opportunity to after a vicious massacre they just wandered aimlessly for nearly an hour shooting no more people as though they didn't really 'know' what they were doing. Douglas' timid demeanor when he starts using the guns is like he's a little boy with the ammunition to fight back against the world for the first time. He then becomes increasingly confident because his overall agenda has never wavered, he just feels righteous by the film's conclusion.
*The best interpretation of Michael Douglas in his entire career, simply masterful... I don't know why this actor followed that path of great roles that forced him to the limit of acting*
Thats the point. They probably made more breakfast boxes than they could sell that morning, but still they refused to give it to Douglas' character since it was past the breakfast hour. How self-made bureocracy can drive someone insane.
Francis Drake the manager and cashier both knew of this leftover breakfast just sitting there. Their minds don’t work fast enough to put two n two together. That’s the root of our daily frustrations. Both are probably pot heads or on something.
@@charliewatts6895 That's where the performance becomes genius. His vision is distorted he's stroking the gun, and fires it by accident. It almost sounds like he's never been in whammy burger before. This is a repressed soul who'd reach the brink of no return and is freaking out on the highway because he's going to kill his wife and child, having never come close to such a violent action before. Once he randomly finds weaponry he gets increasingly 'confident' with his rampage against society, but his overall aim to commit murder never wavered. Such a good film
Yup, and I love that as he's pacing the restaurant we see all the people staring at him in shock and horror. He starts to rethink his position, and he's like "oh shit, I just pulled a gun because I couldn't get fucking fast food breakfast... ok actually let me get some lunch instead, sorry everybody." lol
@@patriceaqa288 I'm not sure the character consciously allowed himself to know the endgame that he was inexorably working himself towards. He absolutely would have killed them, of course, I don't dispute that for a moment. But I think he only allowed himself to believe that he was going to show up for the daughters birthday and berate his wife (ex-wife? has become fuzzy with time). In that arguing he would have worked up to full steam and killed them both, then turned whatever weapon he had on himself. But I don't think he was *consciously* planning murder.
@@matthewteague623 I appreciate your insight. I don't think he had a direct 'plan' of how and when he was going to murder them but he knows he's not wanted there, and for a penniless unemployed man breaking the law through the restraining order is a serious crime which is treated with a prison sentence. So that he had a 'plan' directly is unknown. Nevertheless given where the character was at this point murder is clearly on his mind from the start of the film. He even says at the end 'from behind bars?' He will be behind bars after this harrassment and restraining order violation. He doesn't know 'how' he's going to do it until he finds guns
Wow things have changed... I was on a road trip and had to stop at a McDonalds. Some guy complained about something and the cashier lost her mind. Then a burger flipper got involved and 1by 1 the entire shift walked out. The manager? was yelling "You are ruining your future!! I will have to say you were fired when someone ask about it!" Nobody even slowed down.
I saw this scene on some UA-cam channel, a while back. Once I saw it, I knew I had to watch the movie. I watched the movie (it’s on Amazon Prime Video Canada, I think) and wasn’t disappointed.
It doesn't matter how many times you watch it it's still a classic. Everything about this scene is absolute perfection. A truly great movie and Mr. Douglas is The perfect actor for this role
I know right. When I first saw this movie I wasn't sure if it was a comedy or what. Turned out to be a very serious movie at the end. Absolute classic and this scene was hilarious
@@Jim_M_75 He's accused of being a bad guy throughout the movie (mostly by his ex-wife), but it's never established as a fact. Therein lies the meaning of the film: if I (the viewer) were to lash out and make my own rules for a day based on what I think is right, does that make me a bad man?
It’s amazing how a shirt, tie, and neat haircut can get people to immediately treat you with respect and cooperate. The automatic weapon helps a bit too of course.

How was it's ahead of its time
@@Stillreal312It was really *of* its time. If they remade this today, he’d have to shoot everyone in the place to make it seem believable
All he wanted was some breakfast.
I know, right!
And see his little girl.
Then he should get there on time, if it's that important. And he changed his mind, so he didn't want it that bad.
Like Rambo!!!!!
And they wouldn’t give it to him.
The older you get, the more you can relate.
Almost every frigging day...😑
kinda true..
Deep. Mum take your phone off you?
@@lukey4472 almost every day now.! 🤪🤪😬😬

2:25 Letting that Tec-9 off right beside his head would not only rupture his ear drum, but likely cause permanent hearing loss.
Wish I could see this movie on peacock, etc, one of my favorite's! GREAT FLICK!
This movie is SO underrated 😢
Underrated? How's this movie underrated? The reviews are very positive, It won the Edgar awards and was nominated for two others.
Maybe it's a bit of a hidden gem nowdays, but it's certainly not underrated.
@@IDONTGETTHEPOINT By underrated he probably means underappreciated. You say it yourself, it's a hidden gem but the average joe doesn't know or care about this film sadly.
Pop culture always moves on to the next big hit, but everyone with a brain cell is still enjoying this movie as much as they did in 93.
Check out the "the critical drinker" review on youtube: m.ua-cam.com/video/5mXg-NZWFr8/v-deo.html
Customer is always right.
Customer that yells is never wrong.
Customer with a gun now owns the discussion.
@John LaFever Good luck pulling out a gun with a full auto Tec 9 trained on your head but whatever
Amazing how he never even once raised his voice. I wish I could be able to deliver such a calm demeanour after having been treated like shit my entire life for having “fit the mould” and then proceeding to be treated like trash. You make a good point. When a customer yells, they get good service. When a customer asks reasonably, they are told “no” repeatedly until the gun comes out. Fucking ridiculous. I hate how society has raised everyone to cow tow to the assholes who just yell to get what they want and treat the reasonable ones so badly.
Actually, that has been amended to "The customer may not always be right, but the customer is always the customer".
FryingPanHead that has been amended to mean, kick assholes out so nice friendly people can eat in peace.
@@kenaberle4321 That's not our policy!
Always a movie I enjoy coming back to just as good and relevant as ever
I have only seen this film once shortly after it was releast . It still sticks in my mind , its something else
Everything about this scene is hilarious - look at the goofy 'hamburger' hats they make the staff wear, look at Sheila's expressions - she's so bored and this little diversion has made her day!
Isn't whammy really what a burger!
@@jamesoshea494 The big hamburger is McDonalds, the plastic film over the windows screams Wendys or Burger King. They are all there. LOL
When I was a teenager, I applied for a job at a fast food place. It was only going to be for a month over the summer, but part of the job was wearing one of those goofy hats. I took one look at it, asked: 'Do I *HAVE* to wear this thing while on duty or is it optional?' and when told it was not optional, i just walked out and looked for a different summer job, lol.
Ain't no way I was gonna be caught wearing one of those things, even if everyone else was doing it too. I was a dumb fucking teenager who didn't really need that job, so I could easily afford to say no and walk off, though.
That’s Michelle Pfeiffer’s sister. She’s current on the show Big Sky. Obviously much older now.
@@ericolson2286 What rubbish 😄
Sheila is a little doll. Michael Douglas is an exceptional actor, and this may be his best role ever. This movie is a gem, and it describes our culture to perfection.
All the things that's annoying and gets under are skin is featured throughout this film. Also what can happen when someone finally snaps.
Dedee Pfeiffer
The human race will get what it deserves
@@johnlipinski2395 What I love about Douglas' performance is that he doesn't really 'know' what he's doing the whole day. He's just lashing out at everything we hate in society, but even the way he holds the machine gun stroking it nervously, firing it accidentally, with his vision becoming distorted is such a brilliant touch from him and the director. By the time we reach the ending we've forgotten we met him at a point where he'd already decided to murder his wife and child, and he's our hero. I wrote something years and years ago about this film and the columbine tragedy. Eric and Dylan wanted to 'destroy' their school, however when they got the opportunity to after a vicious massacre they just wandered aimlessly for nearly an hour shooting no more people as though they didn't really 'know' what they were doing. Douglas' timid demeanor when he starts using the guns is like he's a little boy with the ammunition to fight back against the world for the first time. He then becomes increasingly confident because his overall agenda has never wavered, he just feels righteous by the film's conclusion.
Michelle’s sister.
My one of my favorite movies and this scene is one of my favorites hilarious
My friend and I reviewed this film not so long ago and agreed that Hollywood no longer makes such films because it criticizes the system.
'I think we have a critic, I don't think she likes the special sauce Rick'. Pure gold.
@Plonker no you shut up.
That's called Yelp these days.
You have a sad life.
"It was a joke Rick"
"I don't think she likes the schezuan dipping sauce Rick."
Love how the old man was just about to leave his wife there!
Jason Matthew, yeah, I peeped that one too...too funny
@@Seraphimpoet little old dude was moving was to
In the film, the next scene where prendergast has lunch with torres at the mexican restaurant u see the same old guy but in a blue sport jacket.
He thought for that split second his luck was finally in
Dude he was like YES KILL THE BITCH FOR ME! SEE YA!
"I don't think she likes the special sauce" LOL.
*The best interpretation of Michael Douglas in his entire career, simply masterful... I don't know why this actor followed that path of great roles that forced him to the limit of acting*
R.I.P. Joel Schumacher, one of the most underrated directors ever.
Amen to that, I really liked "Falling Down", it was one of his best films!
```` it wasn’t his fault
Oh man, I didnt know he died.
FACTS!
stopped serving breakfast... but shiela just turned around and grabs a ready box with breakfast in it? lol
He changes his mind and orders lunch
Not only that but the only people sitting down are eating hamburgers when they only started serving lunch 3 minutes ago
Thats the point. They probably made more breakfast boxes than they could sell that morning, but still they refused to give it to Douglas' character since it was past the breakfast hour. How self-made bureocracy can drive someone insane.
Francis Drake the manager and cashier both knew of this leftover breakfast just sitting there. Their minds don’t work fast enough to put two n two together. That’s the root of our daily frustrations. Both are probably pot heads or on something.
@@martinbeckmann9376 Yea on delusions of grandeur.....
"It was an accident it's ok"..like everything's just fine and normal. Brilliant acting in a brilliant film.
Lmao he wanted lunch after all that
That is the part that kills me
"The trigger is sensitive, its ok" yea, im sure that made everyone feel ok.
Especially after he pointed it at several of them with his finger on the trigger
😂😂😂
proceeds to flag everyone in the room
That's what I was thinking. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@pluto3194 yeah, he’s lucky he didn’t accidentally kill someone
I like how Douglas' character actually sounds nervous and unsure in this moment, being that he's never gone this far off the deep end before.
Yeah, he's in new territory here.
@@charliewatts6895 That's where the performance becomes genius. His vision is distorted he's stroking the gun, and fires it by accident. It almost sounds like he's never been in whammy burger before. This is a repressed soul who'd reach the brink of no return and is freaking out on the highway because he's going to kill his wife and child, having never come close to such a violent action before. Once he randomly finds weaponry he gets increasingly 'confident' with his rampage against society, but his overall aim to commit murder never wavered. Such a good film
Yup, and I love that as he's pacing the restaurant we see all the people staring at him in shock and horror. He starts to rethink his position, and he's like "oh shit, I just pulled a gun because I couldn't get fucking fast food breakfast... ok actually let me get some lunch instead, sorry everybody." lol
@@patriceaqa288 I'm not sure the character consciously allowed himself to know the endgame that he was inexorably working himself towards. He absolutely would have killed them, of course, I don't dispute that for a moment. But I think he only allowed himself to believe that he was going to show up for the daughters birthday and berate his wife (ex-wife? has become fuzzy with time). In that arguing he would have worked up to full steam and killed them both, then turned whatever weapon he had on himself. But I don't think he was *consciously* planning murder.
@@matthewteague623 I appreciate your insight. I don't think he had a direct 'plan' of how and when he was going to murder them but he knows he's not wanted there, and for a penniless unemployed man breaking the law through the restraining order is a serious crime which is treated with a prison sentence. So that he had a 'plan' directly is unknown. Nevertheless given where the character was at this point murder is clearly on his mind from the start of the film. He even says at the end 'from behind bars?' He will be behind bars after this harrassment and restraining order violation. He doesn't know 'how' he's going to do it until he finds guns
A thing that shows madness, sheer overall madness and absurdity, if seen properly.
The only scene I remember from watching this as a kid with my dad.
I love how she goes from sassing him to flirting with him 😂
LoL
Na
She got wet off that drama
@Billy B She asked to be called "Ms. Folsom" before the bag hit the counter numb nuts
Yes she was totally turned on
D-Fens: “And you ma’am how’s the food?”
Woman: hurls violently
D-Fens: “I think we have a critic.”
🤣🤣🤣
Was always my favorite part of the movie
Hahahaha that was hilarious
special sauce
she sounded like a turkey
3:45 And you ma'am? Hows the food?
*BARF*
I think we have a critic! 🤣
Wow things have changed... I was on a road trip and had to stop at a McDonalds. Some guy complained about something and the cashier lost her mind. Then a burger flipper got involved and 1by 1 the entire shift walked out. The manager? was yelling "You are ruining your future!! I will have to say you were fired when someone ask about it!" Nobody even slowed down.
This is pure comedy, based on tragedy, based on reality.
our reality is a "sorry squashed thing".
04:20 "Look at this sorry, miserable squashed thing." Exactly what I think every time I go to McDonald's.
At least the Big Macs are thick
Is someone pointing a gun at you? Just don't go there to eat junk food...
Are you crazy? McDonald's is very good, at least in US.
It surprises me that anyone still eats at McDumpsters.
@@brianaguilar8283 not anymore lol
I saw this scene on some UA-cam channel, a while back. Once I saw it, I knew I had to watch the movie. I watched the movie (it’s on Amazon Prime Video Canada, I think) and wasn’t disappointed.
I never heard of this film. Wow. brilliant.
Michael Douglas is one of the greatest actors ever. I love all his movies.
The game
He didn't make allot of movies tho
The Game and Wall Street.
Until he says something about Trump which in a recent ad he gave a wink and a nod to.
It doesn't matter how many times you watch it it's still a classic. Everything about this scene is absolute perfection. A truly great movie and Mr. Douglas is The perfect actor for this role
I know right. When I first saw this movie I wasn't sure if it was a comedy or what. Turned out to be a very serious movie at the end. Absolute classic and this scene was hilarious
100% agree one of my favorites
100%, even after all the years I know he's the bad guy but I so much know and feel h's right and want him to "win".
@@Jim_M_75 He's accused of being a bad guy throughout the movie (mostly by his ex-wife), but it's never established as a fact. Therein lies the meaning of the film: if I (the viewer) were to lash out and make my own rules for a day based on what I think is right, does that make me a bad man?
M. Douglas believed the poor showing was that the movie was ahead of it's time. Two decades later, he was very, very correct.
