This movie could have been more interesting with better writing but it's not. It starts with a bar fight and the bartender finds a phone afterwards. That's the most interesting part of the movie. The bartender has serious issues and is a raging alcoholic. The acting in this movie is terrible, the writing is worse and the movie is slow and hard to watch. To top it off the ending makes no sense and is just disturbing. Don't waste your time watching this movie.

If you like food, family and a great story you will enjoy this movie. This film starts with a Chef at a trendy restaurant who cooks for the joy of cooking and through some crazy circumstances has to start over while trying to figure out how to be a good dad to his 10 year old son. What follows is a great story of redemption, good food, great friends, family bonding and a road trip that you just have to see to appreciate. Favreau is a guy you just find yourself rooting for and Sofia Vergara is just darling in the role of his ex-wife. John Leguizamo plays the role of his best friend and portrays the kind of friend we all could hope to have. Just a thoroughly enjoyable movie to watch.

This series will have you hooked after you watch the first 2 episodes that follow people put into a game of life and death with rich people betting on who will win. The story takes you all over the streets of Moscow and slowly provides you with the story behind all of the contestants, some of whom are connected for various reasons. It will have you on the edge of your seat right up until the ending.

If you are looking for final closure in the ending you may be disappointed as i was. I am guessing they are setting things up for a sequel series.

Other than that it is an intriguing story with very believable acting for the most part.
