    Stephen Chow again with a killer movie. Ultimate funny. Karen Mok uglify herself in this movie and is hilarious. The cooking scenes and tasting of the food are almost the same as anime. Very funny movie.

    A very funny movie. I love the structure of Stephen Chow's movies which seem to be always throwing new things at you. This movie makes you hungry and teaches the importance of hitting your opponent with a folding chair during a competitive cook-off. Four and a half stars.

    Of all Sing jai's movies, this one I liked best. It started Sing's brand of mouleitou; fallen hero, ugly heroins and unknown but talented sidekicks... He was able to depart from WongJing and find his own funnybone...

    The weird thing about Chow's movies is that I love them so much but I rarely have the chance to give them higher than 3.5 if I take away the bias marks. This is a good example.

    This movie has 2 major flaws. #1 is its poor choice in lead actress. #2 the contest judge is way too unrealistic.

    The plot is predicable, but the stuff that happens in the between isn't! This movie is hilarious, and it plays on many cliches seen in comics and movies. I throughly enjoyed this film, and I think this will become one of my favorite comedies of all time.

    one of stephen chow's masterpieces, with comic-like plotline which is crazily funny. some of the unforgettable scene has even gradually become a trace for HK popular culture, e.g. the part where Karen Mok sings the 1970's cliche TV drama theme song, "Ching yu yeee, jik chin gum..."

    stephen chau is my hero! his movies most of the time are comedies of very sad ppl/ events. there's really more in his works than just gags and foolish bodily acts.

    The movie is nonsensical and crazy, but that's its appeal. Comedy comes in all forms, from word play (cantonese), cheap shots, physical funny and reality absurdity, all combined into one laughing spree.

    Another brilliant comedy from director/actor Stephen Chow. A spoof of the God of Gamblers movies, as well as iron Chef. Throw in Stephen Chow's love for everything kung fu and Saholin and you've got quite an entertaining movie here,

    Vintage Stephen Chow. For me, this shows more of what he does best than Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hestle.

    I really liked this one, but it wasn't as good as Shaolin, but it was lighter than Kung Fu Hustle, so it's a happy medium. This one is hilarious to watch in a group though!!!

    Nobody makes movies like Stephen Chow. Nobody. As formulaic as the general plot is, it's absolutely impossible to predict what will happen next (weird as that sounds). And I've got to learn some of this Kung Fu stuff, it seems like it really DOES help you do everything better.

    This just may be the greatest movie about cooking I have ever seen (mind you I can't name any other movies that are about cooking but that's neither here or there.) If you know who Stephen Chow is then you'll know what to expect from the humor department of this film, if you don't know who Stephen Chow is....well, he's one of the craziest, funniest movie makers on the planet.

    Karen Mok delivers an unforgettable performance. This film has some elements of Buddhism as what Stephen Chow used to do in his film including his international well known Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle as well.

    Early Stephen Chow movie where the subtitles move at the speed of light. This movie isn't as good as Hustle or Shoalin, but its still really good. I love Chow's directing, he take anything and adds a martial art element to make it cook (no pun intended). If you love other Stephen Chow films, you'll love God of Cookery.
