"Chef" is Spectacular

"Chef" is Spectacular. Chef Carl Casper, played by Jon Favreau, works at a restaurant in Los Angeles. He loves cooking food, but he is not cooking exactly what he wants. After a bad review, and quitting his job, Casper decides to make a change. He decides to fight back. After a great trip to Miami, with his ex-wife, Inez, played by Sofia Vergara, and his ten year old son, Percy, played by Emjay Anthony, he decides to take matter into his own hands. After obtaining a food truck from Inez's Ex-husband, Marvin, played by Robert Downey Jr., he creates his own business. The food truck he creates serves authentic Cuban food. This is a great opportunity for him to start over, and spend more time with his son.

This film is incredible, because of the amazing cast and direction led by Jon Favreau. The cast included, Dustin Hoffman, Scarlett Johansson, Bobby Cannavale, John Leguizamo, Oliver Platt, Sofia Vergara, and many others. It was beautifully written, and one of the best parts of the films is how modern it was. The film used many different modern ideas, about social networking, and it worked well throughout. It is a great story of redemption, and also of family torn with divorce. It is an incredible film that should be seen not only because of how great the food looks throughout the film, but how much of a great job Jon Favreau does for this film. It is an amazing film to see.
