The cast is game, the money’s on the screen and the editor still doesn’t know what to do with any of it. Lots of ADR & sloppy match cuts aside I’m not going into a major studio film expecting precise filmmaking. This is a saccharine drama of broad characters and sumptuous food porn, unafraid to punctuate a motivational speech with a fart joke. It’s both fluff and fatless, just straight competition spectacle from start to finish. Good stuff.
