Every phase of this is given ample room to develop, becoming bigger and wilder as it goes.

This is a complex production that does a lot of the right things, from a director who is always challenging himself and his audience. This is a very good movie.

It is thoughtful, emotionally honest and engaging when it comes to families and the art of directing. The performances are strong and the writing is patient and well-observed.

A very worthwhile viewing experience.

The eccentricity got boring after a while, which is a shame because the artwork is so inviting.

It is a good story told in a vibrant, fast-paced, way, with energetic performances.

The passion for one another that comes with their love of cooking is delicate and enchanting to watch.

Overall, it is okay, with a few strong suspense scenes and, at only 82 minutes, it gets in and out efficiently.

It is touching, thought-provoking and, if this does prove to be the final cinematic treat we receive from this legend, a worthy goodbye.

Uncomplicated, simple, enjoyable, engaging, heartwarming and just plain likable, with moments of true beauty.
