Chef (John Leguizamo, Scarlett Johansson, Dustin Hoffman, Robert Downey Jr, Oliver Platt) (DVD)

Description

Jon Favreau directs, writes and co-produces this movie in which he also stars alongside John Leguizamo, Scarlett Johansson, Sofía Vergara, Robert Downey Jr and Dustin Hoffman. Restaurant owner Riva (Hoffman) refuses to let his chef Carl Casper (Favreau)’s creative juices flow, giving him an ultimatum – either cook the dishes on the menu or leave. Although Carl sticks to the menu, bad reviews criticising his lack of creativity result in a Twitter war and he loses his job. With the help of his friend Martin (Leguizamo), ex-wife Inez (Vergara) and son Percy (Emjay Anthony), Carl opens up a food truck and tours the country with his culinary delights, rediscovering his passion for cooking along the way. The cast also includes Oliver Platt, Bobby Cannavale and Amy Sedaris.
