'Cook Up A Storm' may be arriving later than its peers, but it is easily the most satisfying CNY movie we've seen this year.

I'm quite glad I watched it even after reading it's short summary and that 'simple' looking poster. I would recommend this to anyone that likes a movie with a bit rivalry and personal growth. The cast is super likable and well defined. It is also visually stunning, and the ending was not only packed with emotions, it was very satisfying in the way the main character handled himself. It has a very nice structure (even for a 'worn out' plot) and is far richer than I expected. It didn't feel slow at all (and actors in Asian movies tend to talk more quickly anyway). Better to have no opinion at all, than to simply complain about something without rhyme or reason. Also, why comment on script/dialogue when you clearly are from the US and are probably reading someone's subtitles? That is, in my opinion, something particularly dumb. The only thing that makes sense in what he said is the fact that there are unimportant male characters that are 'underwhelming', but their role are so small that it doesn't even matter. I don't know what 'BasicLogic' is talking about in his review.
