What a great movie.......2007-05-23

That's all I can say. If you are a Steven Chow fan, this is a must-have.

I enjoyed it .......2006-12-03

Unlike the previous reviews I don't think yo have to speak Chinese to enjoy this movie . You get the jist from the subtitles. It is a big spoof on the whole Iron Chef popularity. It was funny even though the jokes were based in Chinese culture.Most of the jokes are sight gags anyway. It is a movies for a good laugh, nothing heavy.

Not for Kung Fu Hustle Fans.......2006-01-03

Ok I have seen three Stephen Chow movies. God of Cookery, Shaolin Soccer, and Kung Fu Hustle. Kung Fu Hustle is by far the worst movie he's made, but the most catered to American audiences. Therefore, if you liked Kung Fu Hustle, chances are you are not going to be a horribly big fan of God of Cookery. I adored God of Cookery myself. I thought it hilarious and entertaining and not at all hard to follow.
Shaolin Soccer in my opinion is a superior film to God of Cookery, but God of Cookery is just a small step behind. I enjoyed it immensely.

What ... the ... hell?.......2005-12-10

It's hard to believe I watched the same movie as everyone else here. This movie fails on every level. It isn't a good action movie, or a good silly movie, or a good comedy, or a good satire ... or much of anything but an endless parade of lame gags, terrible dialogue, weak characters, vapid plot, and so on. There isn't anything redeeming about God of Cookery. Don't be fooled into thinking you'll like it because you like Shaolin Soccer, Iron Chef, Rumble in the Bronx, Ong Bak, or almost any other far-superior show or movie to which it might be compared. God of Cookery is just painful, feeble, and empty.

Good Movie but Not for english fans.......2005-11-22

The movie was funny and pokes fun at a lot of chinese movies, but the subtitles are horrible. I'm a mandarin speaker and I had to watch it in cantonese (which i'm not very fluent in), so i lost a lot of the stuff that was going on. too bad my b/f doesn't speak chinese at all, but even he managed to laugh sometimes :-D

anyway, if you are a stephen chow fan cuz of kungfu hustle, u will not get this movie much, cuz they talk very fast and a lot of the humor aren't targetted towards a universal audience.
