Premise

When the local mafia shows up to burn down her restaurant, Ana, a chef with a meticulous past, defends her turf and proves her knife skills both in and out of the kitchen.

Movie Review

A rather straightforward action comedy thriller that just seeks to entertain, and does so from the get go. The Hollywood cocktail of comedy and action that has worked so many times before, and having been applied so often it has the formula nailed to a tee…. Following the same schematics as in the past couple of decades with mob bosses, smarty-pants oneliners, we enter a genre that is so familiar to us, does not push us outside our comfort zone, and entertains us.

An amusing feature film, with the right doses of action, easy jokes, an a narrative structure that imposes few demand son us. We get to enjoy seeing Don Jonson, who keeps his coolness, in a role that is light, not particularly complex, and fun when he has to be.

It is a movie that does not risk much. It is a lives up to expectations, and that is just about it.
