Favreau makes sandwiches. That’s the entire plot of Chef.
False, he plays a hard drinking detective who doesn’t play by the rules but does get results. In real life he’s ‘actor’
Bradley Cooper makes sandwiches. That’s the entire plot of this little sub-thread we’ve gotten into.
$22 for one of those puppies apparently, pre tax, pre tip. Would rather to feast on a plate of slowly heated baked beans frankly.
In a cinema.

Honestly think life is too short to not find out what you think about Chef (2014) by watching it to find out
One of those descriptions you kind of hope is AI slop as it’s more embarrassing to think a human wrote it.
Incredible bit of nominative determinism that a guy called Chef Carl Casper ended up working as a chef

I hate to point it out in public but you’ve left a star off Infernal Affairs.

My most five stars in a month for a while, but all (almost) rewatches sadly
Best (non-rewatch): Duel To The Death
Worst: This Island Earth. Dull dull dull
MMOTM: The Abbott of a kung fu monastery is walking along and the ground begins to shake. Then a fifteen foot high ninja appears and begins to bother him then the giant ninja explodes into six normal size ninjas and they have a good old punch up and then five of the ninjas explode in puffs of purple smoke and then the remaining ninja jumps up and throws off all their clothes in the air and lands and it’s a naked lady and she whips her long hair round a bit and it flies off and turns into a net and captures the Abbott. This all happens in about forty five seconds of Duel To The Death.

A really interesting plot device that unfortunately those at the helm didn’t seem to know what to do with.
This could have really worked as a tight 90 min exploration of “that” reveal, but Polley’s script is flabby and meanders in all sorts of unnecessary directions (the subplot with Dominic West a notable low point).
At its strongest it reminded me of Jonathan Glazer’s ‘Birth’, showing a curious insight into what we choose or want to believe. Much like that film, there is much to admire here, but I just wish it had been more disciplined in its execution.
No getting away from it either - it’s a crap name for a film.
