Hundred Foot Journey is a movie on food and emotions. It show two different cultures of India and France, who are enemies of each other as they start competing with each other on Indian and French food, and how they later on go on to become friends of each other especially.
The Indian family comprising of Om Puri starts an Indian restaurant to compete with the French restaurant run by Helen Mirren, but his restaurant has to close down due to circumstances. Hassan(Manish Dayal) wants to become a chef and to start with he joins Miss Mallory(Helen Mirren) and finally becomes a chef with two michelin stars with his girlfriend Margeurite(Charlotte Le Bon) He later on goes on to become a popular chef with three michelin stars in a big restaurant in France.
Of the actors Om Puri and Helen Mirren are terrific in the movie. The other actors including the Charlotte Le Bon, Manish Dayal have also done a good job. Other actors play their supporting roles well. Juhi Chawla in a brief appearance playing Om Puri's wife has limited scope.
The photography of the movie is also very good as it catches the picturesque locations of countryside France.
The music by AR Rahman as always once again is good.
Overall it can be said that Hundred Foot Journey is a lovely movie touching on sentiments and emotions.
