Burnt
Bradley Cooper plays the kitchen version of a grown-up child star. His character had a significant career as a chef at a young age and somehow lost it and now he wants it back.
Burnt is billed as a comedy but there wasn't anything funny about the trailers I've seen. I bet this will struggle to find an audience, but I can't really say if it'll be good or not. UPDATE: I just learned John Wells directed it. So it'll be pretentious garbage probably.
Burnt is rated R for language throughout. So maybe Gordon Ramsay has a cameo!
Our Brand Is Crisis
This will do for political campaign managers what "We Are Your Friends" did a couple months ago for aspiring EDM DJ's - that is, make a movie about them that no one will see. And that's really all I have to say on the matter!
Our Brand Is Crisis is rated R for language including some sexual references.
Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse
I promise you here and now that this will be remembered as nothing except a black mark on Tye Sheridan's acting career.
Just don't. And while I'm at it I'll let you know that this is barely a real movie. And by that I mean it's just one small notch above a direct to video release. Nobody in this movie - behind or in front of the camera - is of note. Tye Sheridan might be of note in the future, but that's it.
Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is rated R for zombie violence and gore, sexual material, graphic nudity, and language throughout.
*****
I wish I had some good news for you this week, but all these movies are trash. Sorry. Just go see The Martian again, because that movie is outstanding.
