Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Crappy film

best movie i've ever seen.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

By Demographics. Iron Chefs were decided in advance, based on rating demographics. The let's pretend was shattered when Cora left because the core demographics of the food network was stay at home moms and when she became known publicly as a lesbian the ratings of episodes with her dropped, so you dropped her. The same reason every judge was visibly embarrassed and ashamed for sending Faulkner home twice. They knew they were being paid to do the wrong thing and it showed, but FN needed someone who appealed to their core demographic even if that demographic had a high percentage of racist homophobes. The Same reason Samuelson was sent home regardless of skill, knowledge and what was on the plate. A sad revelation to an otherwise entertaining concept.
