The Kitchen is a jumbled mess that is an absolute chore to sit through. It's not enjoyable. It's overly long. It's horribly paced. The editing is incoherent. It's underwhelming.

The Kitchen is a prime example of what happens when you cram all the storylines, charactes, twists and turns of what should have been a series into one film, meaning not a single of them can be explored properly.

The result a jumbled, rushed mess of a film that wastes both an interesting premise and a cast that would've been more than competent if they had the time and space to do their thing properly.… Expand

This movie was a hot mess. Horribly written and the only notable character performance was by Moss. It seemed like Haddish was just thrown into the mix. McCarthy tried way too hard to be a tough girl. Wouldn’t recommend.

If you want to watch a crime movie with an all-female lead then do yourself a favour and watch Widows instead.

The Kitchen, no not that kitchen, Hell’s Kitchen in the 1970s. Mobster’s wives Kathy (Melissa McCarthy), Ruby (Tiffany Haddish) and Claire (Elizabeth Moss) are forced to step up and get their hands dirty when their husbands are unexpectedly arrested for a botched robbery. It may start off a bit shaky for the women but quick enough the women turn out to better at the work than the men ever were. Not that we’d really know because all the men barely have anything to do other than show up do something awful and then leave again, in fact the only interesting character in The Kitchen is the psychotic Domhnall Gleeson. Unfortunately he’s not around enough to have much of an impact. The rest of The Kitchen was just a boring mess and I couldn’t wait for it to end. I don’t feel it knew what genre to comfortably fit in, at times it’s going for a dark and gritty crime film but then swiftly moves into a comedy with an upbeat soundtrack while the women walk down the street in their new outfits smirking at what a better job they’re doing over the men. I like to see films where women are kicking ass but this is so forced I didn’t buy into it at all. You can’t just get a few popular actors, throw them into a mediocre crime movie and wing it hoping that’s enough. Spoiler alert it’s not, the result is forced, tonally all over the place and not recommended.… Expand

Elisabeth Moss evidently has more talent than Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany Haddish although that really doesn't exempt her from anything because although it can be said that her work is better than that of her co-stars, in no way helps toElisabeth Moss evidently has more talent than Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany Haddish although that really doesn't exempt her from anything because although it can be said that her work is better than that of her co-stars, in no way helps to make this a better film.

I went to watch The Kitchen in 2019 at a cinema in Cambridge... The Kitchen is as bad as it sounds, one of the worst films I've ever seen and I've seen loads and this is another. Horrible female actors, boring film, completely uninterestingI went to watch The Kitchen in 2019 at a cinema in Cambridge... The Kitchen is as bad as it sounds, one of the worst films I've ever seen and I've seen loads and this is another. Horrible female actors, boring film, completely uninteresting and unentertaining. The only good part of the film is when it ended and like so many films that drag on and have nothing to keep the viewers interest this was agony and torture to sit through and watch.… Expand
