What I'm Watching: Chef (2014)

So I went to see this little movie called Chef because once I saw the trailer I realized Scarlett Johansson and Robert Downey Jr. were in it, and that made me think fondly of those two Avengers food truck AU fanfics I liked. (Hey, there are worse reasons to decide to go see a movie.) In fact, for one brief shining moment while watching, I thought that it was even going to be AN ILLEGAL FOOD TRUCK, as in The Coffee Bandits of Greater Manhattan, AND I WAS VERY EXCITED BY THIS PROSPECT, but it turned out that when the Miami cop stopped to ask them questions they actually did have a license to operate. How they would have gotten licenses in all the other cities they stopped at along the way back to L.A. is a mystery the film leaves unexplored…

Also. Like. He has “El Jefe” tattooed on his fingers and he doesn’t even speak Spanish? Seriously? What.
