Boiling Point

A chef must deal with pressures in and out of the kitchen of a high end restaurant in the Christmas rush.
Tense and Tasty
"Boiling Point" is a gripping and intense experience, thanks in large part to its impressive one-shot format that keeps the tension simmering from start to finish. The behind-the-scenes chaos of a high-pressure restaurant environment is captured with raw realism, and Stephen Graham delivers a fantastic performance, grounding the story with emotion and authenticity.
The pacing is tight, and the atmosphere is rich with stress, egos, and unspoken tensions. You feel the heat-both from the kitchen and the collapsing relationships around it. However, while the execution is admirable, the plot doesn't dive as deeply into some of the characters or themes as it could have. Certain arcs feel underdeveloped or abruptly cut off, leaving a slightly hollow aftertaste.
Overall, "Boiling Point" is an engaging watch that showcases technical skill and strong acting, but it could have used a bit more substance to fully satisfy.
