The greatest movie ever!
... View MoreFun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
... View MoreWorth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
... View MoreThe joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
... View MoreIf you like the craziest, zaniest and cheapest television comedy and aren't offended by anything, then this is the show for you. I love it. Thu is an absolute scream and so are the other "actors" especially Peter and whoever the guy is who played "Mr. Misery", a Curt Cobain knockoff. I record the show (because it's usually on late at night in between movies on IFC) and watch it later many times over.The cast are basically all unknowns from New York City who possess distinct character and personality but probably couldn't find enough work to put them over in the business, so they do "Food Party". I hope the show lasts for a few more seasons and after it's over the company puts it out on DVD so it can be preserved.
... View MoreThis show is one of the most creative shows I've ever seen. The set is my favorite part because there is always something new or interesting to look at. For example, there is sometimes a rave going on in the freezer. The main character is a little strange at first but then you fall in love with her and her antics.There is sometimes a story but who cares about that. If you want a good story go watch HBO because its amazing. But Food Party is a show you can just watch and laugh at. This show has so much heart it reminds me of something Michel Gondry would do. I think this show would do better on a network like Cartoon network on adult swim.Go watch this show now!
... View MoreI never saw the first season of Food Party, but what I have seen of season 2 has consistently left me staring shell-shocked at the screen while the credits roll. In a good way. Take Pee Wee's Playhouse, the Mighty Boosh, Hello Kitty and a cooking show, throw them all in a pot, stir vigorously and what you get is Food Party. The show's lack of polish may be off-putting to some (there's always the Disney Channel, guys), but to my mind it serves to expose the creativity at work here. Mercifully low-budget creativity. The secret ingredient is Tran herself, whose child-like demeanor and deadpan acting make me feel like I'm eavesdropping on a little girl's stuffed animal tea party. Except it's more like a little girl's stuffed animal imaginary cooking show adventure. Food Party is a crazy change of pace.
... View MoreI have watched six episodes of this show on IFC and found nothing about it to recommend. Even though it is supposed to be funny (I think), I didn't laugh once. The plots are very simplistic, which in itself is not detrimental. Yet, when the actors appear visibly anguished to be associated with the show, it does tend to detract from the experience of watching it. The sole person who seems to be enjoying it is Thu Tran, who, although energetic enough, lacks the acting ability and professionalism to pull off the feat of starring. She seems like a nice person and is quite lovely; however, she simply isn't funny and I have seen better acting in grade school plays. I realize it is her show, but if Greencard Productions is committed to the show, it should seriously consider replacing Tran with a person of talent.
