KR N Nothing like that, not even close. This might be few decades ago, things changed a lot Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/19/23 Full Review Advaith R One of the most important films that everyone must see for its message. It brilliantly shows the injustice towards women. Brilliantly acted by the leads in the metaphorical "Great Indian Kitchen". Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/01/22 Full Review Audience Member While the message of the movie was great, it could've fit in 30 mins. I was exhausted with it after the 3rd time they showed her cook, clean, do the dishes and cater to the incompetent and babied men. My GF and her mother stopped watching it soon after too though they seemed pretty glued to it early on. I would've recommended the movie to others if it was less than half as long as it actually is. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member The filmmaker has shown abnormal mysogenistic society via a story that looks absolutely normal. We see it everyday almost in every household without giving it a thought. This film makes us realize how toxic the life is for many women - Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A really well made movie! Exposes the orthodoxy and deep-rooted patriarchy that exists in society. Convincingly portrayed by the lead actors, this makes for compulsive viewing. Go for it, you won't be disappointed! I would place it amongst the really powerful cinema I have watched in quite some time. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Holds an unflinching mirror to the worst aspects of Indian society Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

Critics Reviews

Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Terrific, trenchant film, whose director Jeo Baby questions patriarchy and gender expectations, and looks at the very real possibility of smashing it. Aug 17, 2021 Full Review Anupama Chopra Film Companion The Great Indian Kitchen reveals that there is little that's great about the Indian kitchen. Instead, it is a space of domestic slavery. Feb 5, 2021 Full Review Jimmy Cage Jimmy Cage Movie Reviews (YouTube) THE GREAT INDIAN KITCHEN is a relentlessly realistic indictment of the patriarch, which shows that we still have a long way in front of us. Rated: 8/10 Apr 25, 2022 Full Review Sucharita Tyagi Film Companion Jeo Baby hasn't given any of his characters any names. He also ensures that till the end of the film, you won't realize you don't know these peoples' names. Because you know these people. Aug 17, 2021 Full Review Anjana George The Times of India The movie throws light on various aspects of a family which glorifies woman as its backbone. It also talks about independence and individuality of human beings beyond gender. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 17, 2021 Full Review S. R. Praveen The Hindu Makes practitioners of patriarchy squirm in their seats... Aug 17, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
