42 Grams Reviews
Common Sense Media
Barbara Shulgasser
Fascinating portrait of a young chef has some cursing.
Movie Nation
Roger Moore
A revealing but too-narrowly focused documentary on the making-of-a-Michelin-starred-restaurant and its cost on a young couple's lives.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Based on what we see in "42 Grams," perhaps the place collapsed under the weight of the chef's massive ego.
Chicago Reader
Mike Sula
Give it your all and you can lose it all-that's the lesson, accompanied by the frenetic Philip Glass-like string arrangements that have become de riguer in the now ubiquitous genre of tortured-chef portrait.
The Spool
Clint Worthington
All in all, this doc offers a sumptuous meal for lovers of fine food and the challenges of creativity.
Nonfics
William Dass
42 Grams offers a look at what it means to fully live your passion. This film should be appealing to anyone who has meditated on how to define their success and what it truly costs to be an "overnight" success.
Arts Fuse
Peg Aloi
The film's stunning final images suggest that there will be no end to this passionately creative endeavor, driven by the hunger to satisfy.
