A Recipe for Seduction

I don't know if I've ever seen a film that's presented by Kentucky Fried Chicken. "A Recipe for Seduction" is probably the first. It's a somewhat strange and silly film about an upper class woman who's in love with Colonel Sanders, the chef of her home. Yeah, Colonel Sanders, the guy who was obviously the founder of KFC in real life. He actually passed away almost exactly 40 years ago. In this film, Sanders is played by Mario Lopez, and he does a good job. I don't usually watch Lifetime films, but I wonder if this short film is a parody of one of them. It has to be a parody. I was certainly laughing. I mean wouldn't you be laughing if Colonel Sanders was one of the main characters in a friggin' romance film?

"A Recipe for Seduction" sort of takes itself seriously, but it also sort of doesn't, and I like that. I haven't written much about the plot and I won't write more about it. I think the acting and the writing are pretty good for this kind of film. Sanders is definitely a likeable character. Well, the film *is* presented by KFC, so the fast food chain's founder has to be likeable, right? Even though I enjoyed this film, I don't know why it was made. Maybe KFC just wanted to show people that they have a sense of humour. I guess there's nothing wrong with that.

Get a grip you pompous "critics" its extremely terribly acted, On purpose. You people acting like it was supposed to be a real romance movie really need to reevaluate your lives. It was OBVIOUSLY supposed to be a Comedy!

I need a sequel. That was a Chicken Little and I at least need a $5 fill up to satiate me. I appreciate all the quintessential Lifetime tropes so well portrayed in a condensed format. It was high stakes but I am glad the mustache was unscathed.

This movie was stupid AF. But...in a good way. Basically, this film has Mario Lopez as Col Sanders - he makes KFC for some rich family - and the daughter falls in love with him and rejects her wealthy suitor. It's all good - cause Col Sanders has the recipe not only for future marketshare - but also...for seduction. lol - they should remake this as a longer film and release in theaters. It would be a cult classic. And like Mario Lopez Col Sanders...it will make you hungry...for love.

While very short, if not taken seriously this is a great, enjoyable, hilarious film.
