Burnt is, to be clear, not a good movie. It is in fact a pretty terrible movie.

A macho foodie fantasy with Cooper as a swaggering sex god in an apron. If this were a comedy, it would be brilliant.
Rafer Guzman, Newsday
Rotten
Lots of quick cuts and kitchen close-ups - of gas stoves, buttery saucepans and stock characters concentrating preciously on haute cuisine - and lots of unmoving melodrama.
Brad Wheeler, Globe and Mail
Rotten
Bound to inspire headlines full of tiresome kitchen wordplay: "half-baked," "underdone," "lacks seasoning." What it really is, though, is late for dinner.
Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
Rotten
Unless you also want a tremendous side of ego and hearty helping of yelling, Burnt may be a dish to skip.
