Mongolian Chinese Director Wuershan gives us the first TIFF Midnight Madness movie from Mainland China. A comedy of three stories of Desire, Revenge and Greed based on a short story.
The story of the Chef outshines the other two and is more developed but over all the movie is funny and well written.
Even with a comedy though I expected more action and of course a lot more humour. THE BUTCHER, THE CHEF AND THE SWORDSMAN has a very Chinese Opera feel to it, with a dash of cooking shows and a sprinkling of video games tossed into the mix.
