Fran and Babs from Over/underrated podcast return to Flixwatcher to review Fran’s choice Chef.
Chef (2014) is a comedy drama road trip film, written, directed and starring Jon (Iron Man) Favreau. Also starring Sofía Vergara, John Leguizamo, Scarlett Johansson, Oliver Platt, Bobby Cannavale, Amy Sedaris, Emjay Anthony, and Dustin Hoffman, along with Robert Downey Jr.
Miami Chef Carl Casper is the head chef at a popular LA restaurant but clashes with the restaurant owner over the menu. When he receives a negative food review from a prestigious food critic and blogger Ramsey Michel he unintentionally starts a Twitter (hello 2014!) spat. After a failed attempt to serve innovative cuisine to Michel and redeem his status, Casper quits and decides to take his food on the road in a food truck and drag his son along for the ride.
Chef is a charming and easy going film, even if it is occasionally a vehicle for Favreau’s ego. If you enjoy food and hold nostalgia for a time when Twitter was a fun social media platform then Chef is the film for you.
Chef scores highly across all categories apart from repeat viewing to give an overall rating of 3.70.
