Review of The Kitchen (2019) by Stephanie Zacharek for Time — 09 Aug 2019
Mostly, The Kitchen flounders, taking one page from Quentin Tarantino here and another from Martin Scorsese there, without ever finding its own sense of authorship. Even the movie’s soundtrack — featuring Etta James, Heart and Fleetwood Mac, among others — feels like a desperate attempt to set a mood that never quite jells.
There’s not enough heat in this Kitchen, but there’s nothing cool about it, either.
