At times hilarious, at other times, even more hilarious. It’s sort of like a parody of a Clint Eastwood Western, sort of. It’s about learning how to make the perfect noodles. No, really, that’s what it’s about. The film is secretly similar to The Gods Must be Crazy in its expository jump-around style. So don’t be freaked out when it teleports from scene to scene, and when some scenes don’t even include any of the main characters. And what about when they walk into that shop and tell those guys their noodles suck? It’s downright exhilarating. I wasn’t kidding when I said it was about noodles. Oh, just see it. This film kicks very much ass.
