It's really inspiring, but it's in no way a warts-and-all portrait of José Andrés.

It’s refreshing to see an account of a famous food guy who doesn’t wallow in his own character defects.

I respect a lot of it... I just don't know if there's enough story here. This film kind of limps to 90 minutes just barely.

When the world appears to be falling apart from natural disasters to pandemics, José Andrés seems to keep it together in this inspiring film by Oscar-winning director Ron Howard.

Rated: 4/5

We Feed People (2022): Ron Howard doc about chef José Andrés and his nonprofit World Central Kitchen. His focus? Feeding people, not raising money. It turns out that running a restaurant kitchen is good training for managing natural disasters. Inspiring. Watch, then donate. B+

I lived in DC for 10 years so was aware of Jose Andrés and World Central Kitchen but had no idea how the organization works to fulfill its mission. I agree with the philosophy that relief is about immediate response to needs along with supporting communities so they can continue their recovery and meet community needs with partnerships. I also appreciated that the documentary portrayed a real person who is a relentless and an imperfect human but who among us does not have these moments.
