FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
chrisdillon33 I have watched every season of this show, it is good the way the judges encourage the contestants to push themselves to be more creative.i like the judges on master chef Australia better than master chef US or UK, They seem more enthusiastic compared to the other versions of master chef.the only thing i do not like about the show is when they bring back contestants that have been eliminated it is not fair especially considering when contestants get eliminated it is cause they where not good enough to continue in the competition. that is why i rated the show 5 out of 10 it is a big let down for the existing contestants of the show too. I do hope in future seasons of the show this does not continue.1 point i give other versions of master chef are watchable because when contestants loose and are eliminated they are gone which is what the shows main aim is to eliminate contestants till they get their last 2 contestants, plus their is always a bit of drama, personalities clash, tempers flair.i find the series somewhat rehearsed and scripted especially when it comes to winners of certain seasons, if its aimed as a food show some of the better cooks or contestants don't seem to last i noticed from the first half of the season who were the better cooks which has me wondering if the show is more the usual so called reality tv than an actual competition.I will continue to watch this show with hope they improve the format and how fake most of the show is, contestants do not seem surprised when they loose challenges and are eliminated. even the winners of each season seem to look like they know they have won before the judges have declared who has won.big improvement needed to lose the rehearsed look reality tv yep cooking show not a hope.
mithunjo Absolute top cooking contest show. Unlike it's American counterpart, no drama, politics, and bickering. Great challenges and concepts. The judges Matt, Gary, George are very decent and gracious in their evaluation and comments in general. Show does away with any kind of nastiness unlike some other reality shows, Great cooking by all contestants. The level of competition is always high. Cannot fault this show.
MovieObsezed MasterChef Australia is definitely the best cooking show among all the ones out there. I have been watching this show since the 2nd season and I am always amazed at the quality of the contestants and dishes produced. Since it is a reality show, it does suffer from some over- dramatized moments and excessive crying in parts but the judges are great, especially George Calombaris, who is adorable. I also love how supportive the contestants are towards each other. To top it all, the recipes are actually posted on the Tenplay website and I for one love attempting such creative dishes.
ChicoIMDb I've watched MC Aus since it's 2nd season and have been consistently impressed by it's contestants 'reflection' of the Australian "hail fellow well met" and "good on ya" philosophy... in STARK contrast to the American MC experience of 'hyper-competitiveness' and 'damning with faint praise' The OZ judges are critical YES but not at the expense of compassion and decency ... the US judging is as if the judges want to 'let you know' just how 'sophisticated' their palate is. (although that timbre of the US shows Chef's HAS thankfully mellowed) the reason I'm writing this review is for anyone whose interest may be piqued, or questions if there is a difference ... MOST Definitely there is and I believe it gives you a VERY poignant look at the comparative psyche of American VS Australian and as an American it gives me pause as to whether we Americans couldn't learn a VERY GOOD lesson on how to pull together and care for one another and still be competitive and strive for individuality...Maybe the Aussies are a bit TOO congenial but the backbiting and negativity of the Americans almost makes me feel like Lombardi's quote "that the only good loser is a loser" takes competition to a level that tends to steal away a warmth, civility and admiration for your opponent that endears the Aussie MC with a 'Feel Good' feeling that you don't get from the US version ....maybe the tears sometimes seem more 'crocodile' in OZ but at least they don't sting and feel piteous like they do in the US version.sometimes I want to like the winner AND the loser and not just glory and stomp with the winners.a 'Bit of a rant' I'm sure but if you're at all interested in the philosophical differences between the US and Australia ... this MC cooking show may be more revelatory than you can imagine
