Kat and Steve G @RT35690249 Oct 16, 2026 Possibly the worst movie I've ever seen in my life. The script could have been written on a post it note. I couldn't hear what they were saying most of the time. It was the kinda movie that you watch to the end cos you think there must be some kind of plot twist to make it worth creating this movie, but it was just a snoozefest. I would rather cr*p in my hands and clap than ever watch a movie as terrible as this. See more diogo13 T @Tua_mera Jul 16, 2026 Muito potencial desperdiçado. Apesar de ter uma direção de arte competente e uma atmosfera distópica interessante, o filme afoga-se num ritmo arrastado, personagens vazios e um argumento sem rumo que não leva a lado nenhum. See more Zachary R @Chomsky Feb 11, 2026 This synopsis is completely wrong: "London, 2040 -- rising house prices, computerized labor and eradication of the Welfare State has turned the city into a billionaire's playground, pushing the lower classes to provincial empty slum-like high rises like The Kitchen. Ex-Smash-and-Grabber Izi is desperate to go straight but when his young son contracts a devastating illness, he is forced to take part in a heist that will change the lives of everyone in The Kitchen forever." Izi is not a smash-and-grabber and already has a straight job, his son never contracts an illness, and there is no heist. The story is a father-and-son drama against a techno-dystopian backdrop.

See more Robert R @RobertRiley Sep 25, 2025 Taut, potent and thematically relevant, Kibwe Tavares and Daniel Kaluuya's "The Kitchen" is less sci-fi, more speculative fiction, with about as much to say about the current moment as you can possibly imagine. To wit, it's actually an incredibly depressing watch lol and I'm nowhere near sure what I was expecting, given the subject matter. I'm not gonna get on my soapbox here too much, but make no mistake, we need more movies like this nowadays. The futuristic setting, the "action" — it's all window-dressing for a challenging story about uncomfortable truths in our world. Tremendous work here from Kane Robinson and newcomer Jedaiah Bannerman, both of whom have no small feat to accomplish in bringing to life the material they're both given here. Needless to say, though, their efforts are not in vain. Super interested to see where/when either/both of these filmmakers apply their directorial talents next. See more Todd O @RT05190978 Aug 5, 2025 Thought the movie was heading for a British dystopian action movie. But instead it slows the pace and chooses the path of a slow paced drama giving an insight into the inner conflicts and struggles of community gentrification, opposed to "the people versus the system" route.
