A pair of searing performances make A Taste of Hunger's high-octane restaurateur romance worth a watch. nikonamerica's review:
There’s almost nothing harder to keep your eyes off of than a power couple. They always have this air about them, like they know the effect they have on us all and they like it that way. They are just naturally cooler. We let them be that way and it’s hard to pin down exactly why, other than the sheer force they emit into the world whenever they kiss or touch or look each other’s way. There’s a fire in these bonds we long and strive for and, at the end of the day, humans are masochists.
Sounds intense, right? Director Christoffe Boe certainly recognizes the gravity of the story he is presenting us, which gets the audience prepared for the level of high drama to come throughout the film’s 90-plus-minute runtime. He presents this tale like an epic, with a sweeping score and a perfect opening quote to set the scene: “If you ask me what I want, I’ll say I want everything.
While the tone does a ton of legwork, the film truly hinges on the two lead performances. In fact, setting up a volatile relationship within the confines of the cutthroat world of luxury restaurants calls for actors who are willing to push themselves and each other, be unabashed in their choices and command attention.
But the film’s biggest asset is the story in which these powerful characters exist. It isn’t necessarily saying anything that hasn’t been said before about the decay of marriage, but the backdrop these conflicts are set in front of makes it interesting. As if relationships couldn’t be chaotic enough, this one is trying to survive under the influence of perfectionism and the taste of success within two people’s life work.
