Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Nicely cast ensembler, centered on a hopelessly disorganized eatery owner and peopled by a weird collection of lovable eccentrics, is pacey entertainment that hardly puts a foot wrong.

fresh:
Akin perfectly captures the antic pace, eccentric personalities, and fickle fortunes of the restaurant game, and his vision of the Soul Kitchen as an all-night bacchanal is irresistible.

fresh:
Tasty concoction about a young man's frenetic struggle to keep his offbeat restaurant going.

fresh:
Akin's earlier films were dramas, and he hasn't remade himself as a master of comedy, but even when the gags fall flat the vibe is agreeable.

fresh:
The slapsticky tone of Akin's latest work is more anarchic than heavenly, but the picture has its screwball charms.
