quelemi Have seen this movie lots of times and during all times I feel the expression on my face.. it jyst najes me smile! Love it!
sibashritmohanty I felt happy while watching this movie and after I finished watching it. The actors did justice to their characters. Very believable story and performances. The story takes us through a journey that the father-son duo embark on. A journey where their relationship with each other and with the audience matures and strengthens. Frustration, loneliness, love, all surface with deep authenticity. To top this beautiful movie are Sofia Vergara's accent and her smile. There is a guarantee of not getting bored while the family explores the intricacies of relationship through passion for cooking and the search for happiness. Irrespective of how you watch it, through a philosopher's eyes or through the eyes of a laid back engineering student, this movie will treat you delicacies whose taste shall linger for some time after the journey ends with a sweet note. May not be a must watch for anyone, but its definitely a movie that you will not regret watching and there is a fair chance that you will feel extremely content and satisfied.Thank you.
mattkratz This was a great movie about a chef (well played by Jon Favreau) who works in a restaurant and doesn't see eye-to-eye with his boss. (I wish Dustin Hoffman had gotten a bigger role in this movie!) He loses his job after he doesn't get a favorable review for the food he serves from a respected food critic, sends him a nasty response on Twitter which he thinks is a private message, and then a confrontation with the critic caught on video goes viral. His reputation in ruins and his family life damaged due to a divorce and a strenuous relationship with his son, he starts to rebuild with his team on a food cart. This features a good cast and excellent performances all around. It might draw comparisons to the Bradley Cooper film Burnt. I loved all the scenes of the food being prepared. Just don't watch this movie on an empty stomach! You will love the final scene.*** out of ****
harisz4 the movie was like a 2 hour long advertising campaign for twitter. Was quite predictable and monotonous.There were no parts of the movie that were actually exciting. It was mundane. the acting of the lead character was strained in my opinion and i believe it did not fit the role.
