Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Tayyab Torres
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Ezmae Chang
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Tobias Burrows
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

The challenger and the Iron Chef have one hour to prepare a meal in which each course must include the featured ingredient for that day's show. After the meals are prepared, a panel of judges samples both meals and determines who has made the better meal.

I started watching Iron Chef recently and I like it.The host and the Iron Chefs very interesting. The host talk in a unfamiliar way and the Iron Chef look like Samurais.This cooking show is a lot better than other cooking shows.

Iron Chef is far and away the best show currently on television. In addition to simply being an amazing cooking show, it also teaches us about different cuisines and eastern culture. There are 4 Iron Chefs who do battle with the challenger chefs preparing dishes which best articulate the chosen THEME INGREDIENT. There have been women challengers, and in fact I have seen one of them defeat Iron Chef Chen Kenichi. Incidentally, and for the record, the 4th Iron Chef (Iron Chef Italian Masahiko Kobe) does have his own platform, it is just separate from the other 3. The four Iron Chefs are Iron Chef Japanese Masaharu Morimoto, Iron Chef French Hiroyuki Sakei, Iron Chef Chinese Chen Kenichi, and Iron Chef Italian Masahiko Kobe. Perhaps some of you saw Food TV Chef Bobby Flay get his butt kicked by Morimoto San in the Food TV Iron Chef NY Battle which aired on June 25th? For those who want to watch, Iron Chef can currently be seen on Food TV at 10pm on Fridays and Saturday nights, and at 7pm on Sundays.

This show is a bit on the melodramatic side, but still is one of the best cooking shows I've ever seen. It is dubbed, and aired on the Food Network Channel on Friday and Saturday nights at 8 pm. It also airs on the Japanese Channel, but I don't know what time.There are four chefs (sometimes there are three, the other one just doesn't have a platform) called "Iron Chefs." There is the Iron Chef of Japan, Iron Chef of Italy, Iron Chef of China, and I forgot what country was the other Iron Chef who wasn't usually there. Anyway, a challenger chooses who he (I've never seen a female yet) wants to "battle" with, and then Chairman Kaga, the boss, selects an ingredient, ranging from sea animals to herbs, as the theme of what the chefs have to cook up in one hour. Usually, four to six dishes are made. After the hour is up, four judges (two being guest judges, who, usually, are celebrities) give their scores to determine the winner. The best part is hearing the judges' comments (there was once an actress who commented on the Iron Chef of Japan and just said, "I hate it!" I was LOL!)The one thing that is not so hot is the dubbed English on the Food Network. It's just the floor reporters' voice. He is running out there and yells the host's name "Fukui-san!" It gets irritating after a while.
Avoid the dubbed voice of the floor reporter, and you'll enjoy a whole hour of cooking. By the way, you may be tempted to get something to eat afterwards.
