      The biggest shortcoming of the film is that the plot is not enough

      The filming, editing and soundtrack are good. The biggest shortcoming of the film is that the plot is not enough, especially the first part of the film: the line of Adam's struggle with drug addiction is not explained by the storyline, but is simply narrated in the way of voice-over at the beginning, and no explanation is given. Why did he dig up a million oysters, why did he get three Michelin stars, why didn't he accept Tony's help but let his ex-girlfriend help pay off the debt? The lack of...

      8 points, there are so many troughs that it has become a film review

      1. The second time I watched it, I forgot my name, which made it easier for me to find it

      2. Little tony is very good and cute. All other small roles are very good and I like it very much

      3. I really love food movies, but I can't help it.

      4. I like another fellow chef very much, I like their madness, I like that they can get back on the right track and say you are better than me or continue to struggle to cook. How can life be rational all the time? go

      5. I understand...

      Symbiosis and Opposition

      When talent becomes the capital of indulgence, destruction and harm follow. The way to redemption is not to punish yourself in a single boring job, but to nirvana in broken dreams. When he said "I'm tired", he really let go of the past.

      Tony's feelings for Adam were pure and deep, while Helen's and Adam's feelings were so calm and reassuring. Therefore, love makes no difference regardless of gender.

      Personal redemption has always involved the support and dedication of more...

      Cooper Cooper Cooper

      Three and a half stars, Cooper is really good looking, with clear blue eyes, a flirtatious beard and a smile. Tall and big, with a big nose? The butt is also very round, especially when walking in a psychiatrist's house... This is like a male hormone transmitter!

      Closer to home, I have always liked to watch cooking shows. However, this film shows too little about cooking. There are only a few pitiful French dishes on the plate. I am skeptical about what the Michelin judges can see. The...

      Inspirational Chicken Soup on How Paranoid Chefs Are Healed

      Part 1

      Where there are people, there are circles, and where there are circles, there are rivers and lakes. Of course, the food circle/chef circle is no exception. The male protagonist who screwed up once wants to make a comeback to revive his arena, but all these efforts are screwed up again because of the previous grudge. Talented people have a paranoid side. This talented chef also has a paranoid side, striving for perfection in cooking! Inspirational chicken soup essays tell us that...

    Evaluation action

    If "Burnt" uses cooking language to describe this movie, it is half-baked and has no condiments. ("New York Times" review)
    The film neither captures the interesting side of the characters, nor does it show the cooking skills that make the audience eye-opening. Although the male protagonist is very handsome, he cannot hold up the whole film. ("Los Angeles Times" review) 
    The transitions and emotional points in the film are really...

    Movie quotes

    • Helene: [about Adam] American?

      Conti: Yeah.

      Helene: Yeah. Arrogant prick.

      Conti: Well, he's a chef.

    • Sara: He scares me.

      David: He's a two-star Michelin chef. He's supposed to be scary.

      Sara: Well, "two" doesn't seem like many.

      David: To get even one Michelin star, you have to be like Luke Skywalker. Okay? To get two, you have to be... whoever Alec Guinness was. But if you manage to get three... you're Yoda.

      Sara: Well, what if he's Darth Vader?

    • Simone Forth: You know, when I lie awake at night and list my regrets, you're one of them. I say to myself, "Simone, you're a lesbian. Why did you sleep with Adam Jones?"
