I've only recently come across this film, and so far, from the actors, the trailer, and the premise of it, I'm getting that feel good funny vibe from it... you know the film, the one with the really quite serious and emotional parts left out of the trailer, but looming throughout the film, only to resolve all their issues right at the end and we're completely happy for them.

I'm not quite keen on those kinds of films, but I'll watch them.

Trailers

Warning: food porn ahead, and yes, I'm one of those people who uses that phrase, and it's probably another reason why I'll be watching this.

Here's a funny scene that I stumbled upon while watching the trailer. This shows signs of a really funny film to come, plus, they're hitting the nail on the head about social media affecting someone's work on a great scale.

We would definitely have been going to the cinema to watch this, however, I will be in America when this airs in the UK, and it will have already aired in the US... I guess I'll be waiting on a DVD release or Netflix hit from Chef.

I'm a huge fan of the Food Network, and so this really gets me excited based on the food in the trailer, and also because even though it's totally unrealistic, I'd love to own a food truck and do that whole cheffing thing; maybe in another life.

Thoughts?

Will you be going to watch this?

I wished that I was able to watch this when it came out in the UK, either way, you can count on me reviewing this once I've watched it.
