Viewing Notes
via Netflix
After losing his job in a spectacular display, a chef starts up a food truck and begins patching up his relationship with his family. I could relate so hard to this film, especially his son’s relationship with his dad. There’s a lot of heart to this film, the cast is fantastic and amazing, the characters are great, and while there is a bit of feel good to this, it still feel completely believable. This is great real-life escapism here and one of those films I think everyone should see.
