adonis98-743-186503 Adam Jones (Bradley Cooper) is a chef who destroyed his career with drugs and diva behavior. He cleans up and returns to London, determined to redeem himself by spearheading a top restaurant that can gain three Michelin stars. Burnt is the kind of film that once again critics got wrong cause i don't know what they were expecting? But this movie was pretty damn good especially Bradley Cooper seems like he worked the chef part a lot especially that scene where he started wrecking the kitchen and humiliating the rest of the people that work for him plus the cast is really good you have some pretty talented people and famous names such as Sienna Miller, Daniel Brühl, Omar Sy, Emma Thompson, Uma Thurman, Lily James and Alicia Vikander. After you finish this film you will definitely feel like starving. Burnt isn't just a great movie but also a great comedy about dreams, love and food.

suzanne-sellers Its a well known plot device that we are presented with difficult and troubled characters who act like a-holes and we're supposed to infer they are actually deep and worthy of our sympathy. Of course, the two main jerks in this film are destined to fall in love and learn a life lesson in the process, voila! But in this case, the two main stars Sienna Miller and Bradley Cooper don't seem worth of much sympathy at all. Herein, the movie fails.Sienna Miller's character is raising a young daughter alone, but this doesn't seem like a good enough reason for her bitchiness. Bradley Cooper is a recovering drug addict who stabbed everybody in the back in the past and seeks a new start now that he is in recovery. Obviously, people are suspicious of him and cautious as he plays the diva chef to the hilt when Daniel Bruhl's character gives him a chance as head chef in a new restaurant in London. Its hard to describe the repulsiveness of Cooper's character and why anybody puts up with him. He and Sienna's character "bond" over trying out new recipes, but even that doesn't seem to give humility to Cooper. Didn't he learn anything from shucking 1 million oysters in a New Orleans dive bar as penance for his character flaws? Frankly, even his food looks puny and un-appetizing and we're supposed to believe its haute cuisine and the work of a master!Things happen that aren't very interesting and in the end Cooper wins a Michelin star (or two or three, I don't remember) and all is well and he has learned his lesson and everybody's happy! Forget that he tortured everybody with his tantrums during the whole process. Funny thing is, the audience was never rooting for Cooper in the first place. If you want to see a terrific chef movie, see "Big Night" with Tony Shaloub and Stanley Tucci. Burnt doesn't hold a candle to his terrific film about what being a chef and owning a restaurant is really like.
