It's such a treat to see such an endearing slice o' life in the middle of this blockbuster season. There's not a single comic book character in sight. Jan 5, 2015 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Chef is a foodie-gasm of a film, directed by and starring Jon Favreau as a designer cook past his sell-by date, who goes on a road trip from Miami to Los Angeles to find his soul -- and soul food. Jul 7, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Here's Chef to show us all, for now and evermore, just what a vanity project really looks like. A public service, in its way. Jun 27, 2014 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

There's nourishment to be had, if you lower your expectations. But be warned: a lot of it is just watching Jon Favreau make toasties in a van. Jun 26, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Chef is compelling, somewhat convincing and, according to many who know better than I, it's largely on trend. Jun 6, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Favreau is clearly a food buff and knows his stuff, creating in Carl a character that is believable both as a successful chef and a less successful family man. Mar 4, 2019 | Full Review…

Don't see Chef on an empty stomach. This is a film where the food is front and center (and it all looks great). Jan 31, 2019 | Rating: B | Full Review…

This is a lovely, funny, wonderfully acted film. The big problem is, it's an 80-minute movie that takes two hours. By the time you get to the real story, you're out of gas. Nov 2, 2018 | Rating: 5/10 | Full Review…
