Movie Reviews of What's Cooking?Movie Review: Informative Family Mmovie Summary: 4 Stars
This is a good movie to watch with your kids (teens). It's family oriented and uses some important social lessons. Behind the actual "lesson/moral" of the movie, is a warm family driven feature with decent acting.
Movie Review: A truthful way to represent family during the holidays Summary: 3 Stars
This movie critiqued modern family and how in general we look at how thanksgiving is supposed to go within our families. Commonly things don't go as well as we would like them to. In the movie there are several families who live on the same block of different races and ethnicities and are not directly connected. They all go through things that are very uncomfortable. I think the film is showing that we need to embrace our families no matter what happens between our families. It is common for families to have tension between each other and common for silly mistakes to happen in a kitchen like burning or dropping to turkey. This was a very cleverly done movie. You get a great sense of a deeper connection that the human race holds as individuals. It shows our common bond with family and the problems that come up and often show a lot during the holidays when the family is together. It had an interesting way of showing different ethnic groups that live on the same block and probably don't think much of each other or their lives. The human race is deeply connected with each other even more then we really see or might never know. I think the movie critiqued the saying " It's a small world." There were a lot of suspenseful a funny parts. It was not the best but pretty good.
Movie Review: Great movie, bad DVD Summary: 3 Stars
I loved this movie, and when my copy of the first release "went bad," I ordered this re-released DVD. Unfortunately, this copy doesn't do justice to the movie--the color is sporadically off, and the sound mixing makes it very hard to hear the dialogue over the soundtrack. If you can, order the first DVD (now discontinued, but available through sellers).
Movie Review: disappointed Summary: 2 Stars
I was looking for a Thanksgiving movie with comedy, since I have only 2 comedy movies for Thanksgiving. I was very disappointed in this movie. I love the different cultural ways people celebrate Thanksgiving dinner in America, but this movie should be a drama more than anything. It showed how society has changed families from a kid keeping a gun for a friend in his house, lesbians having kids, etc. I would not suggest anyone to buy this movie that has not already seen it and also not suggest to buy it, if they want a comedy. This movie has no comedy in it.
Movie Review: Sad . . . Summary: 1 Stars
I had been looking forward to seeing this movie as an multi-cultural movie bringing in all the different dynamics of different societies, cultures, and beliefs. In some ways it was that, but unfortunately the makers of this particular movie HAD to bring the overall wholesomeness of the movie down to the ground. It was very down-to-earth, gritty, and crude. The accuracy was there but in my opinion it wasn't worth watching.
