good back-story, and good acting

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

The movie was very good I have seen a different story after so many years must watch

Burnt is another film about a top chef, and in many cases the chef is a world class known chef. In Burnt, Bradley Cooper plays an over the top angry chef with several past struggles about drug abuse and such, quite like Gordon Ramsay. The film is labeled a comedy but isn't too much of one, more so a struggling drama as it takes itself a little too serious. There are some decent scenes showing the foods they make but overall, Burnt is quite predictable, as we know in the end everything will work out, and his character will become more likable and nicer once becoming more comfortable in his surroundings. Sienna Miller is there to play the love interest which was very clear it was going to happen but somewhat feels forced. The language could have been toned down a little and done without as many F- bombs, which is the reason for the R rating.Perhaps had they reduced the film to PG-13 it would have been more of a success. In comparison to the John Favreau film "Chef", that feels more authentic and much more enjoyable, fun and doesn't take itself as serious.

Adam Jones (Bradley Cooper) is a chef who destroyed his career with drugs and diva behavior. He cleans up and returns to London, determined to redeem himself by spearheading a top restaurant that can gain three Michelin stars. Burnt is the kind of film that once again critics got wrong cause i don't know what they were expecting? But this movie was pretty damn good especially Bradley Cooper seems like he worked the chef part a lot especially that scene where he started wrecking the kitchen and humiliating the rest of the people that work for him plus the cast is really good you have some pretty talented people and famous names such as Sienna Miller, Daniel Brühl, Omar Sy, Emma Thompson, Uma Thurman, Lily James and Alicia Vikander. After you finish this film you will definitely feel like starving. Burnt isn't just a great movie but also a great comedy about dreams, love and food.

I liked the movie, but it brought up an issue that confuses me. It's a widely documented fact that smoking dulls the sense of smell and taste. How can a chef who smokes, pursuing a Michelin star, claim to be able to discern subtle flavors and pass judgment on the acceptability of a dish? While viewing the film, seeing three of the chefs smoking and then critiquing the food, I thought this must be a goof. Later, doing more research on the internet I see this is a common practice. Really???
