Review of Chef

Chef (2017)
8/10
Why was this rated so poorly?
15 April 2018
Warning: Spoilers
I was pleasantly surprised with the movie - had pretty low expectations thanks to imdb's rating of 5ish.

What I liked about the movie
  • Saif Ali Khan: it was such a treat to watch him. He was just so effortless!
  • The picturesque beauty of Kochin: makes you actually want to visit the place.
  • The subtle 'Dil Chahta Hai' reference: (Bus scene in which the group is considering taking a detour to Goa).
  • The overall "feel-good" feel of the movie.


What I did not like about the movie
  • The wife and son were a mis-cast: there was no chemistry whatsoever between Saif and his family (I can kind of understand why they broke up, lol!).
  • Too many unnecessary songs: felt interruptive.
