A mostly palatable affair that can’t wholly sidestep white-savior cliché in a rushed final course.

“Kitchen Brigade” is a white-savior story par excellence, though at least it’s not difficult to swallow — the young people are lovely, and so is the food.

Kitchen Brigade tells us to take risks, be brave, and cook like hell along the way.

Rated: 3.5/5

Cinemalogue

Too much sugar and not enough spice spoils the recipe for this breezy French crowd-pleaser that feels more like an appetizer than an entrée.

NYC Movie Guru

Mildly engaging, charming and harmless, but slightly undercooked, clunky and contrived.

HOCHLEBE DIE RÜBENORGEL Kleiner feiner Feeldgood Streifen mit einiges an Sarkasmus, typisch französischen Humor und die Devise das Einwanderer nicht gänzlich unnütz zu sein scheinen.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
