The Entire Movie Takes Place In "The Kitchen"

The Kitchen (2012)

Rated R

Starring Laura Prepon, Bryan Greenberg, Dreama Walker, Matt Bush, Tate Ellington,

Directed by Ishai Setton

The Story:

Jennifer (Prepon) is preparing to celebrate her 30th birthday. However when she finds out her boyfriend (Greenberg) has been cheating on her, she really could care less about the entire day. The efforts of her sister (Walker) and friends to cheer her up will all take place in...

The Kitchen.

Okay, so a few times the action of the film takes place just outside of the kitchen, but if you can't view it from that location, then it totally happens offscreen.

There are amusing parts sprinkled throughout, but really, it's a talking heads type of comedy where people just talk and have conflict throughout the night.

Truly, nothing happens.

I kept debating on whether to pop this one out, or hold on to see if the pace ever really picked up.

Nope, never did.

Great cast, by the way, as they all handled the roles they were given and made the movie more watchable than it should be.

But otherwise, utterly forgettable.
