Bradley Cooper plays a chef who’s great at cooking, but a mess at personal and professional relationships. After a major flame out, he moves to London, where he enlists old friends to create a new restaurant. There’s lots of kitchen prep that’s interesting and serves up some beautiful dishes. There’s also lots of him being a dictatorial asshole, but oh so committed to his craft. Performances are solid, but the story’s focus is muddled, esp. in the beginning. Foodies into the high-pressure gourmet world will find lots to like. Cooper fans will enjoy him. Overall, an interesting, but forgettable film.
