Sik-gaek

This film is basically about cooking and competition. Also based on a comic book or manhwa. Although the competition and the way the main chef goes about trying to win is the main aspect of the plot, there are other elements that keep things interesting. There is also pretty emotional scenes as well, which adds to the entertainment value cause it immerses you into the story and actually makes you wanna care. On the negative side, the cooking process is not that interesting or entertaining to watch which is just a small gripe. I also thought the subplots with some melodrama is done good as well. Everything in this film is also very fast paced, and yet it does not confuse you either which is a good thing cause although it tries to cram a lot of stuff into one film it does a pretty well. There is films about chef and cooking, some done well and some not so well. This one has the right ingredients to succeed.
