Le Chef Ratings & Reviews
Washington Post
Mark Jenkins
The film's payoff is about as novel as a scoop of lemon sorbet.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bruce Ingram
It's meant to be a soufflé-light charmer, but the bland, predictable French comedy Le Chef basically falls flat.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
Very light French foodie comedy, seasoned with a touch of romance, that never quite boils over into farce.
San Francisco Chronicle
Leba Hertz
It's definitely not love at first sight for this odd couple, which makes for good laughs, but their love of food and life enables them to find the right mix of ingredients for a very funny movie.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
About as exciting as the PBJ and flat diet soda I just had for lunch.
Newsday
John Anderson
"Le Chef" is vaguely reassuring proof that the French can make comedies as silly as ours -- which, of course, they do, though the films usually don't make it onto the menu here.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
"Le Chef" may not be a masterpiece, but it's nonetheless a treat.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Stars veteran Jean Reno as a longtime celebrity chef who may lose control of his Paris restaurant because the young new CEO thinks he's old toque.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
A cinematic meal that goes down fairly easily, but isn't tasty enough to be memorable.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Daniel Cohen's genial French comedy is as airy as a soufflé. Alas, it's not nearly as satisfying.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Kupecki
Le Chef isn't breaking any cinematic barriers here, but sometimes leaving the theatre with a smile on your face is haut satisfaction enough.
Las Vegas Weekly
Josh Bell
As insubstantial and flavorless as one of the newfangled molecular dishes that Lagarde so vehemently despises.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
An amusing soufflé of a comedy that pokes fun at foodies while honoring the art of those who cook for them.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
For a film about mouthwatering cuisine, it offers only fleeting delectable sensations.
Village Voice
Abby Garnett
Le Chef does little more than illuminate the superficiality of the restaurant business.
Newcity
Ray Pride
I'd love just about any truly toothsome comedy about French cuisine that convinces, but in this case, I'll go American and say Jon Favreau's Chef does a far finer job with everything on the menu.
Oregonian
Marc Mohan
Audiences looking to enhance their cinematic diet with new and exciting flavors should look elsewhere.
Tolucan Times
Tony Medley
This is a charming comedy enhanced by a gorgeous woman, Raphaëlle Agogue. Michaël Young's scene as a geisha is a tour-de-force worth the price of admission.
SSG Syndicate
Susan Granger
A frothy, only mildly amusing aperitif...
Movie Mezzanine
Anna Tatarska
Le Chef is more like Portuguese Vinho Verde - very light, making frivolity its main asset.
