Hong Kong | 95 min | Digital Projection | Dir. Stephen Chow
This Hong Kong action-comedy stars popular comic Stephen Chow as a sneaky and greedy chef who routinely rigs cooking contests to his advantage. He makes a bundle by franchising his cuisine until one day he is badly beaten by a former apprentice. Forced to leave the island in disgrace, the chef ends up in a Shaolin temple that masks a secret cooking school. After honing up on his culinary techniques, the cook is ready for a hilarious rematch (Rotten Tomatoes)
This movie is like Iron Chef, only all of the competitors are insane as well as have magical powers. Stephen Chow's movies are hilarious as well as action-packed, so you will have a wonderful Thursday evening. Come hungry, leave satisfied.
