      Shoshana L Fun movie, nothing special Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh my gosh, I love this movie! So comical, so funny, and it's about food, who doesn't love a comedy about food? Especially a French comedy Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review dan m Quirky little French comedy about two cooks(er.. chefs), one legendary played by Jean Reno and the other is an up and coming guy who learned from him thru his TV shows. It's amusing stuff, especially the Japanese scene, and the French gals in this were c'est magnifique indeed. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The best movie of all time. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review nilufer e It was fun to watch because I love culinary arts and Jean Reno but it wasn't funny at all. And I also didn't enjoy them mocking molecular cuisine because that stuff is genius. Respect for the classic French Cuisine though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Had an amazing time watching this movie! A must watch film! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Peter Keough Boston Globe About as exciting as the PBJ and flat diet soda I just had for lunch. Rated: 2/4 Jul 31, 2014 Full Review Mark Jenkins Washington Post The film's payoff is about as novel as a scoop of lemon sorbet. Rated: 2/4 Jul 24, 2014 Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times An amusing soufflé of a comedy that pokes fun at foodies while honoring the art of those who cook for them. Jul 24, 2014 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Le Chef is a withered dribble of a tale, and you'll leave the theater hungry for something of substance. Rated: 2/5 Aug 30, 2019 Full Review Bernard Boo Way Too Indie With characters' motivations so lazily sketched in the script, they're given no opportunities to really fall into a groove. Rated: 4/10 Apr 2, 2019 Full Review Rochelle Siemienowicz The Big Issue (Australia) There's very little to tax or surprise the viewer, but it's a fun swipe at those who take their food too seriously. Rated: 3/5 Aug 15, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews
