Reviews

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
flyfree-88013 This is FAN-TASTIC!! excellent!! i am a big fan of drama and this really hits the spot! if you love watching people yell at awful men who do disgusting things YOU WILL LOVE THIS!!! Gordon goes all out for this, he gets FOOD POISONING, and he REAMS that chef. he goes IN. highly recommend for those who have passionate souls.
hkobylinski It's sad to see - How they turned an interesting show that actually used to focus on food and the dysfunctionalities like Kitchen Nightmares ( I mean the original UK version) that was focused on food and the kitchen itself into this abomination of a sob fest. The American version is simply not a culinary show, and instead of letting one of the most awarded chefs in the world focus on his job and showcasing all his knowledge - has him play psychologist. It's simply a disgrace. A restaurant is a business, there are gonna be hard times, suck it up, listen to your betters, don't argue.Don't tie emotion into a business. They have no place there.
Scott Baldwin (Meven_Stoffat) In all honesty, I have a gigantic man crush on Gordon Ramsay. There's just no one else like him. He tells it like it is, and There's just nothing he cannot do. Or so it seems. I'll admit I'd hate to be some runt on the show, but that's a good thing. And Kitchen Nightmares is proof that sometimes, one voice IS enough to stop a restaurant from serving crap.This is an American version of his original British program, which is just as much a guilty pleasure as the Yankee version. Essentially the rundown is this: A restaurant, somewhere in America, is struggling. It could be due to shitty food or shitty management/service... or maybe even both. After tasting their cheapjack food, Ramsay observes what goes on in the kitchen, and then does what it takes to get the restaurant back on it's feet, for once and for all.Ramsay is brutal as frack. A seasoned tongue, it's just so fun to watch him suffer dealing with morons and bad food, one couldn't help but feel sorry for the guy! His brilliance just doesn't end. I'll admit one of the reasons I love this show is I'm. A world traveler, and one of the things I keep an active interest in is cuisine. Having been to France recently, I always look forward to the French restaurant episodes!In short, if you like crackdown justice shows like me, you will regardlessly love this show!
dcorvino Although I am a fan of the series, the American version of Kitchen Nightmares is not as good as the British version. The American version seems much more dramatic. It is loaded with arguments, family problems, and near fisticuffs. The British version concentrates on the restaurant's problems and how to solve them. It is excellent. I don't want to see a bunch of staged drama (Similar to the fake drama in Cake Boss). I want reality, something that is missing from reality TV! I want to watch Gordon identify the problems, and fix the problems. Along the way, show me how the food is made and improved upon. And by the way, does Gordon really hate every single first meal he has at these restaurants? The chefs can't be that bad, at least not some of them anyway.
