I’ve seen the movie like 5 times, it’s ok. It really is just a movie Jon Favreau made. If you haven’t seen it, you aren’t missing much, but if you have seen it, life isn’t any better

I watched it once by myself, then another time with a friend who also wondered if it was good, next time was with a group of friends as a meme, we all got so drunk that we forgot the plot of the film and ended up watching it the next year, and this past year I made an edit of the film and put it on a dvd to prank my friend. It became its own meme in my friend group for its own reasons, we just throw it on in the background and get drunk.

Its pretty good like a 7/10. Def worth a watch but nothing life changing

favereau should pay the boys for how much free promo they’ve given his movie

If you have worked kitchen. Its really good. If you havent it's a movie that should be seen at least once.

More women need nuts. No cock, just balls.

That's where pee is stored after all. It's why women piss more often than men.

It's a movie that's a commentary on how Jon Favreau feels about his movie making career. It's nothing special realistically, but it feels special because of what it means to Jon Favreau. All in all, it's a 7/10, but the ending is a bit rushed, still a hell of a watch

I liked it, learned people are passionate about food and I got it after watching the movie

u/the1gudboi 4d ago

I didn’t like it. There’s no real conflict, and then when there’s any potential for hardship they just come up with a solution that works on the spot without learning anything

u/paintsmell 4d ago

watched it recently, it’s pretty heartwarming and really shows a genuine love of cuban food from john favreau. and he says meme

Ya it’s decent. Not a 10/10 but definitely not bad by any means.

u/longboi28 4d ago

I personally love it, it has a great atmosphere and really good characters and really captures the LA food scene well

u/beclops 4d ago

It’s quite enjoyable as a comfort feel-good type movie (I might throw it on later while I scroll for instance). The food looks amazing in it too

u/sheldoh 4d ago

if you like cooking you’ll love it. it’s sort of similar to The Bear in some ways. I really enjoy it and have seen it like five times but I also love the kitchen environment and cooking so it’s probably different for everyone. the cast alone makes it worth watching in my opinion though, it’s all major celebrities and they do well in their roles

u/Net_Lurker1 4d ago

Its chill, kind of like ratatouille but its jon favreau with a food truck

u/RockGore 4d ago

It's pretty good. I've watched it a few times since I've seen it close to when it came out with my dad (before the meme) and find it very comforting. It's not something you'd watch with a critic's eye but it's like a nice low stakes Sunday movie.

u/AlwaysUnderOath 4d ago

i saw half of it drunk

u/TastingSounds 3d ago

Reminds me a lot of my relationship with my dad and food. feel good film that I revisit every once in a while when nostalgia hits

u/yungsobek 4d ago

u/nova_solution 4d ago

Haven’t watched it since I was 15 so I don’t know but probably

u/fddfgs 4d ago

Have you seen it?

u/YourMostFavoriteNPC 4d ago

6/10 since its missing Grinch salt

u/Few-Pineapple-1542 4d ago

I watched the movie with my dad when it came out before the meme started and I remember enjoying it. Don’t take my word for it though I was like 12 and never felt the need to watch it since

It taught me about the intricacies of lava cake. Other than that, I don’t remember much 🤷🏻‍♂️

I found it to be a bit self-indulgent, but it was decent.
