Recipe for Disaster Review
It's "Home Alone" crossed with "Spy Kids" but at a restaurant. I had marvelous time watching this fast-paced comedy with my grandchildren. More funny twists than a pretzel.
John Larroquette ("Happy Family") and Lesley Ann Warren (Victor/Victoria) lead a sensationalcast in this skillet-scorching, dish-shattering and deliciously entertaining comedy that serves up family-sized portions of laughter! Rebecca Korda and her kid brothers Sam and Max were looking forward to opening night at their family's posh new restaurant until a wacky twist of fate left them in charge of absolutely everything! Now they're frantically cooking up exotic main dishes and decadent desserts. But when rival restaurateurs next door begin an unsavory plot to sabotage the Korda kids and close them down, Rebecca, Sam and Max must respond by dishing out some delectable mischief of their own!

The title says it all - R. Mcelroy - Shoreline, WA
This movie is on the level of a badly written sit-com. There is not one original idea in it. Every gag is telegraphed from a mile away. Every character is a cartoon cut-out and there is nothing even approaching a real performance. It's pretty clear that the actors involved knew they were turning out schlock and were only in it for a paycheck. I have liked John Larroquette in many other things, but even he doesn't seem at all invested in this. I sat through about 30-40 minutes of this nonsense before I decided it wasn't worth any more of my time. If you are looking in your local video store for a good comedy and you happen across this wretched excuse for a movie, do yourself a favor and rent whatever's next to it. It's bound to be better.
