"Secret Ingredient" should by rights be one of the most depressing films of the year. But instead, appropriately for a movie that deals, in its way, with miracles, it's one of the funniest, smartest and most endearing.

Although on the surface, this is a crime caper, the film works most satisfyingly as a study of the abrasive but loving relationship between father and son.

4/5

For Stavreski, its character first and plot second while social commentary comes along for the ride, as he focuses on the dad and son relationship at the film's heart.
