Mark A. @Knoxx 1d Having worked in a restaurant as a sous chef for 6 years, this is the most authentic "restaurant film" I have watched. None of the romantic understories you see with so many other films of this type. This is "ER" but featuring a kitchen and its crew instead of a hospital.

This movie has changed my behaviour. Hospitality workers - expect more tips See more mlc_085 T @mlc_085 Feb 3 Watch this before you decide to open your own restaurant. I was in the industry for more than a decade. It's not perfectly accurate, but it's pretty damn close. Final scene is a powerful representation of the sacrifices made in the name of "dining."

See more VITALII H @freakynickison Oct 25 This movie shows you the environment in which the restaurant staff is working with all ups and downs, uncensored. You get to see the drama that’s behind the curtain and believe me it is very real. What I really didn’t like about this movie is the ending, it felt short and the ending felt rushed in a way. But then again I’m not sure what ending I envisioned… But, the fact that the entire film was shot in one continuous take is rather impressive. See more Dave S @RT68722908 Aug 16 It turns out that Boiling Point is the perfect subject matter for the one continuous shot concept. Set in an upscale London restaurant, the camera unflinchingly captures the mayhem of both the front and the back of house over a ninety-minute period. Stress-inducing thanks to both the style and the setting, Boiling Point focuses primarily on Andy (Stephen Graham), a chef whose life is quickly spiraling out of control, and his impact on those he works with. Anyone going into this expecting much of a plot will probably be disappointed – make no mistake, this is a character study of a man watching his life slip through his fingers over the course of an evening. Graham is great in the lead role, as is Vinette Robinson as his exasperated sous-chef, but the real star of the show is the style – agile camerawork, excellent sound, and creative blocking make it a worthy entry in the one-shot sweepstakes.
