Burnt

French carry the movie, propped up by a very strong supporting cast (which includes Omar Sy, Emma Thompson, Alicia Vikander, Uma Thurman, and Matthew Rhys) whose roles mostly consist of fascinated or exasperated reaction shots.

The movie goes up several notches in quality every time Emma Thompson, as a sagacious therapist, turns up. Miller is tops, Sy is terrific, Brühl does quite well...

...man lapper ’Burnt’ i sig på samme måde, som en fantastisk sovs får selv de kedeligste kartofler til at glide ned.

...this is Bradley Cooper’s show, and oy, does this film have a boner for his “bad boy” chef...
