      The Hundred-Foot Journey--Sweet Silly White Light Comedy

      The English in this film is very standard. I remember that French people are very disdainful of speaking English, but Indian English is so standard and unscientific. It may also be that I don’t watch Indian films much. There is really nothing to say about the plot. The young man with the genius for cooking followed his family away from his homeland to a small French town, and finally he succeeded in stealing the teacher...

      Dad is so charming

      Xiao Fei recommended this movie. The food is really tempting to watch, and it deserves to be the best movie for foodies. The deepest memory is the omelette that the male protagonist made for the harsh owner of the Michelin restaurant. Success gave me Amway the right way to make omelettes.
        In addition, I think my father's personal charm is really great. At first, the owner of the restaurant opposite looked at their menu, and ended up buying all the ingredients for cooking. Dad later used...

      If you want to see food, you will be disappointed

      For ordinary people, the word "Michelin" exudes the light of the sky, sacred and unreachable. Isn't it just a dish and a restaurant, but in this world, most people will never taste "Michelin" in their lifetime. smell. It's not just luxury!

      However, I thought I could see mouthwatering food like "A Bite of China" in the film, but I was disappointed. The film did not arouse the audience's appetite, and rarely showed food directly, but an inspirational film, a family film, a...

      What kind of love is it?

      1. The kind-hearted Margaret brought out a large plate of Western-style meals for their family to enjoy for dinner: very ordinary ingredients, just very delicate (careful) seasonings, the taste can be very good, first of all, it feels good;

      2. The French country restaurant cottage that Mumbai’s father insisted on buying: The low wall of the French countryside is also attached with a layer of roof tiles, which makes the low wall more comfortable and eye-catching;

      3. The simple and...

      very interesting

      I didn't have any expectations when I first read the profile, the story of an Indian man and a French woman? It must be very bloody, but I didn't expect the plot to be quite interesting, a light-hearted comedy. I still remember when the Indian restaurant was about to open at the beginning, because of Mrs. Mallory's obstruction, I had to go far away to buy ingredients. After returning To keep the ingredients fresh is like rescuing an emergency patient, that part is quite interesting.

      What about a Michelin meal? Is this a movie about food? I always thought it was food (Michelin) and love. As a result, apart from the Michelin star, there is really very little about food. Might as well watch the full feast of Man Han, well, let's call The Hundred-Foot...

      It turns out that I have seen so many films of this director, including the unpopular "The Years of the Dog Face", but I didn't remember Lasse Hallström. The styles of each film are too different. I thought it was a gathering of delicious food, but it turned out that there were not many dishes, and the theme was misunderstood at the beginning. I thought it was a story of an Indian family restaurant working together to defeat a French Michelin restaurant, but I didn't expect it to be an Indian...

      Lesser Holstrom cooked up this film with the way he made "Breakup Letter". It is beautiful and comfortable in the senses, leisurely and warm, but still can't hide its blandness, compared with the delicious food in the film. Up, the plot of this film seems much duller, it is so gentle without any slope, the chicken soup for the soul is too thick, but it looks too greasy. It's not even as interesting as Salmon Fishing in...

      The problem is that such a chick flick in a gourmet shell is too long.... It is much worse than Chef, another gourmet movie this year. The food is not beautiful enough, and the warm but cold colors all affect the perception. Helen Mirren couldn't impress me without a little enthusiasm, a little less Indian hustle and...

    US media

    "The Hundred-Foot Journey" is a good refreshing food. Although its taste is not complicated, it still has nutritional value anyway. ( "Austin Chronicle" review ) Most of the food-themed movies are because they talk about some kind of metaphors, and the same is true for "The Hundred-Foot Journey". ( "New York Daily News" review )   Helen Lydia Mirren's performance is still perfect, every detail of the face is convincing, watching her...

    Movie quotes

    • Madame Mallory: Do any of you know the words to the Marseillaise? Jean-Pierre?

      Jean-Pierre: Of course. It's our national anthem.

      Madame Mallory: Do you know all the words? "Ils viennent jusque dans vos bras. Égorger vos fils, vos compagnes!" "They come to slit the throats of our sons, our wives". Alors continuer Jean-Pierre.

      Jean-Pierre: "Aux armes citoyens, formez vos bataillons, marchons".

      Madame Mallory: And in English, so we can all understand?

      Jean-Pierre: "To arms citizens, from your battalions, let us march. May their unpure blood..."

      Madame Mallory: "Flow in our fields." And that is what it means to be French n'est-ce pas Jean-Pierre?

      Jean-Pierre: Yes.

      Madame Mallory: Well there are other ways to be French. Liberty. Equality. Fraternity.

      Jean-Pierre: Why are you talking only to me?

      Madame Mallory: Because you know who set the fire, don't you?

      Jean-Pierre: Would you surrender to these invaders?

      Madame Mallory: You tell your friends that these bombs have ended a war. They have brought peace. Bravo. You're a chef. I do not pay you to burn things. Take your knives and go.

    • Madame Mallory: What is this flavor that is fighting against the chicken ?

      Hassan: I added some spices for flavor to the sauce, and coriander for garnish and freshness.

      Madame Mallory: But why change a recipe that is 200 years old ?

      Hassan: Because, madam, maybe 200 years is long enough.

    • Papa: You want Hassan because you want another star for yourself, yes ?

      Madame Mallory: Oh, yes. Yes, I will not lie. But I will also offer him a stepping stone to the world. He deserves it. He has a gift.

      Papa: You are very stubborn.

      [rooster crowing]

      Papa: Oh, it's morning already.

      [exhales]

      Papa: A new dawn. So... How much will you pay him per week ?

      Madame Mallory: 200 euro.

      Papa: [chuckling] Now you are proving you are insane.

      Madame Mallory: 250, plus food.

      Papa: If you sit in cold all night, he's worth 600.

      Madame Mallory: [scoffs] In your dreams.

      Papa: 450, or I walk.

      Madame Mallory: 320, but 350 after three month. Do we have a deal ?

      Papa: No.

      Hassan: Yes. We have a deal.

      Papa: [speaking Hindi]

      Hassan: Okay, relax, Papa.

      Papa: What do you mean, "relax" ? Spoiled the whole game.

      Madame Mallory: Papa, we have a deal.
