By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 07 Aug 2019

Speaking of female gangsters, no review of The Kitchen should overlook Margo Martindale, who steals every scene she’s in as a mob matriarch…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Blake Goble (229) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 07 Aug 2019

At its most basic, this is a conventional talkie, rooted in Warner Bros crime history, happy to play with cliché…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Justin Chang (1,535) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 07 Aug 2019

The gender politics are as appealing as the rock-solid trio of lead actors (Melissa McCarthy, Tiffany Haddish and Elisabeth Moss), even when…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Katie Rife (451) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 07 Aug 2019

While the film boasts a refreshing premise — mob wives taking over their husbands’ territory when the men land themselves in jail — what…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Barbara Vandenburgh (315) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 07 Aug 2019

The Kitchen requires Scorsese levels of charisma to work, and only McCarthy comes close out of sheer professionalism…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Jake Cole (292) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 07 Aug 2019

The Kitchen’s inability to criticize its characters without falling back on mild endorsement for their warped empowerment cheapens the film’s…

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 07 Aug 2019

This material, though, is damn thin…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Variety (12,700) on 07 Aug 2019

We see, in Melissa McCarthy’s increasingly fierce performance, a hint of what the movie might have been: the tale of a new kind of feminine…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Brian Truitt (541) for USA Today (4,117) on 07 Aug 2019

They’re made women in an underworld that doesn’t want them, and while that theme is sufficiently explored, The Kitchen disappointingly…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Sheri Linden (962) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 07 Aug 2019

What's missing in this Kitchen is heat. A B-movie summer diversion at best, it's more a collection of genre tropes than an involving crime drama…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Tim Grierson (1,482) for Screen International (2,241) on 07 Aug 2019

The Kitchen may prove to be a meaningful time-capsule document, but is far less successful as broad entertainment…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Leah Greenblatt (734) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Aug 2019

There’s so much talent in The Kitchen, and so much of it wasted; that’s kind of all you can think about for most of writer-director Andrea…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Kimber Myers (423) for The Playlist (3,871) on 07 Aug 2019

Because we’re living in the worst timeline, these actors and concept are wasted in a movie that lacks spark, flavor, spice, and generally…

Review of The Kitchen (2019)

By Joshua Rothkopf (1,058) for Time Out (7,510) on 07 Aug 2019

When featherweight Domhnall Gleeson, as an intense angel of death, is your feminist Irish mob movie’s most interesting asset, you need to…
