Cook Off!

It is just a silly relaxing movie to pass time with I think it got released after Melissa McCarthy got famous...she is just a guest star and shouldn't be the main star on the poster

I enjoyed this movie a lot and love all the actors!

It's only funny if you enjoy dry dumb humor. It is a bit stretched out/ slow but I didn't mind because it's a mockumentary and they usually have that weird pace.

I've seen a lot of bad reviews because they go in expecting something more.

So to lay it out for people who are questioning if they want to watch it: You have to keep an open mind!

If you don't like dumb humor don't watch. If you don't like a movie that feels like a bunch of weird skits forced together don't watch. If you enjoy watching wacky mockumentaries with awesome comedians then give it a try!

Found it funny at first, but by the time Melissa M. came on board and basically ad-libbed her stuff, it had gotten old and no longer funny. Definitely would have been better under the guidance of Christopher Guest. Ended up not finishing it, as I was watching it with commercials, and it just wasn't worth sitting through commercials for.

I really liked it, Melissa McCarthy was actually the weakest link. It was fun and silly. I thought a couple of the jokes were a bit racist, but the characters are all funny--the cast is incredible.

I love cooking shows. I love the "mockumentary" style of the " Best of Show" type movies. This movie seemed like it would be perfect for me. The first 1/2 hour or so, I really enjoyed it. A great, recognizable, funny cast was working for me. Then all of a sudden the wheels fell off. The start of the downfall was when Melissa Macarthy character was introduced. I like her, but she was not funny in this movie. Just uncomfortable to watch. The movie just took an overall mean spirited feel to it, that made it painful to watch. The movie just thinks it's much funnier than it is. It seems like a ton of ad libbing was going on, so maybe a better editor would have improved the film.
