Reviews & comments
Stuff
pressThis is a clumsy, oddly patronising and disappointing project. Comparisons to last year's mostly superb Widows are damning.
Rolling Stone
pressMcCarthy, Haddish, Moss - Oh, what a movie The Kitchen could have been. But oh what an unholy disaster it is. An early contender for worst of the year.
Vanity Fair
pressThe Kitchen offers nothing redeeming to cling close to our chests, nothing warming nor interesting nor worth investing in.
The New York Times
pressAn offense against feminism, narrative logic and Fleetwood Mac, "The Kitchen" is a terrible, witless mess.
Los Angeles Times
pressThe plot of "The Kitchen" twists and buckles but it never fully breathes.
Time Out
pressWhen featherweight Domhnall Gleeson, as an intense angel of death, is your feminist Irish mob movie's most interesting asset, you need to find Hollywood's witness-protection program immediately.
The Guardian
pressIt wreaks of studio interference, a film that feels pulled apart and then haphazardly restitched in an editing suite by a committee of people desperate to get it released before swiftly moving on and all agreeing to never speak of it ever again.
