Now streaming on:

“The Hundred-Foot Journey” is a film that demands that you take it seriously. With its feel-good themes of multicultural understanding, it is about Something Important. It even comes with the stamp of approval from titanic tastemakers Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg , who both serve as producers. What more convincing could you possibly need?

There’s something familiar about the treacly and sanctimonious way this film is being packaged. It reeks of late-‘90s/early ‘00s Miramax fare: films with tasteful yet ubiquitous ad campaigns and unabashed Oscar aspirations which suggested that seeing them (and, more importantly, voting for them) would make you a better person. Films like “The Cider House Rules,” “Chocolat” and “The Shipping News.” Films by Swedish director Lasse Hallstrom.

Hallstrom just happens to be the director here, as well, and the similarities to “Chocolat” are inescapable. Stop me if think you’ve heard this one before: A family moves into a quaint but closed-minded French village and shakes things up with an enticing array of culinary delicacies. This new enterprise happens to sit across the street from a conservative and revered building that’s a town treasure. But the food in question isn’t a bon bon this time—rather, the movie is the bon bon itself.

But despite being handsomely crafted, well acted and even sufficiently enjoyable, “The Hundred-Foot Journey” is also conventional and predictable. And for a film that’s all about opening up your senses and sampling spicy, exotic tastes, this comic drama is entirely too safe and even a little bland.

What livens things up, though, is the interplay between Helen Mirren and Om Puri as battling restaurant owners operating across the street from each other—100 feet away from each other, to be exact, a short but fraught trip that various characters take for various reasons. Watching these veteran actors stoop to sabotage each other provides a consistent source of laughs. She’s all sharp angles, piercing looks and biting quips; he’s all round joviality, boisterous blasts and warmhearted optimism. The contrast between the British Oscar-winner and the Indian acting legend offers the only tension in this otherwise soft and gooey dish—that is, until the film goes all soft and gooey, too.

Mirren stars as Madame Mallory, owner of Le Saule Pleurer (The Weeping Willow), an elegant and expensive French restaurant that’s the winner of a prestigious Michelin star. But one star isn’t enough for the coldly driven Mme. Mallory—she wants another, and then another.

But her bloodless quest for gourmet grandeur is interrupted by the arrival across the street of an Indian family: the Kadams, who’ve been wandering around Europe ever since their beloved restaurant back home burned down during political rioting. When the brakes on their car malfunction on a treacherous stretch of spectacular countryside, Papa (Puri) insists it’s a sign from his late wife and decides to open a new eatery in the charming town at the bottom of the hill.

Never mind that one of the most celebrated restaurants in all of France is sitting right across the street from the empty building he rents. Never mind that they are in an insular part of the country where the residents probably don’t even know what Indian cuisine is, much less like it, as his children point out. He has faith in his food—and in his son, Hassan ( Manish Dayal ), a brilliant, young chef.

Just as Papa and Mme. Mallory strike up a sparky rivalry, Hassan enjoys a flirtatious relationship with French sous chef Marguerite ( Charlotte Le Bon , who played an early model and muse in the recent “Yves Saint Laurent” biopic). The script from Steven Wright (who also wrote the far trickier “ Locke ” from earlier this year, as well as “ Dirty Pretty Things ” and “ Eastern Promises ”) is full of such tidy parallels, as well as trite and overly simplistic proclamations about how food inspires memories. Dayal and Le Bon do look lovely together, though, and share a light, enjoyable chemistry.

Then again, it all looks lovely—both the French and Indian dishes as well as the lush, rolling surroundings, which we see through all four seasons; the work of cinematographer Linus Sandgren , who recently shot “American Hustle.” This sweetly pleasing combination of ingredients would have been perfectly suitable if the film didn’t take a wild and needless detour in the third act. That’s when it becomes an even less interesting movie than it already was, in spite of its loftier aspirations.

Netflix's Dead Boy Detectives Is A Spinoff Stuck In Limbo

100 Feet (Movie Review)

John shelton's rating: ★ ★ ½ director: eric red | release date: 2008.

One of the challenges every ghost movie has to address is finding a way to keep the characters in the haunted house well past the point when any normal person would pack their bags and leave the house for the "Ghost Hunter" TV shows to fight over. In “Poltergeist” the spirits kept Craig T. Nelson around by kidnapping that little blonde girl. More recently, “Paranormal Activity” came up with the simple but ingenious solution that it was the person who was haunted, not the house. “100 Feet” uses modern technology to solve this problem,

specifically the tracking ankle bracelet that Famke Janssen has to wear while she is on house arrest for killing her abusive husband. Now I’m just a simple internet film critic and not a fancy big city lawyer but I have my doubts that the appropriate punishment for a husband-killing battered wife would be house arrest in the still-bloodstained house where the murder took place. Even without a vengeful ghost showing up, that’s some serious psychological junk going on right there.

The ghost in “100 Feet” isn’t content to start slow and slam a few doors, maybe make the walls bleed a little and wait until the third act to escalate to a full-on Class V manifestation. No, this guy only allows one spring-loaded cat scare before getting down to some serious haunting. Right off the bat he appears as a fully developed spectre, kicking Janssen down the stairs, lobbing dishes at her head and in general acting like a pissed-off incorporeal Ike Turner.

There are a handful of subplots tacked on, most of which go nowhere. Bobby Canavale plays the angry cop assigned to Janssen who also happens to be the former partner of her dead husband. Canavale begins the film acting suspicious and unfriendly towards Janssen and somewhere in the middle of the movie he becomes more helpful and supportive because he’s convinced that she’s innocent of murder and is taking the fall for the real murderer. There’s not really any reason for this change of heart and it comes out of nowhere. Her sister shows up for one fairly pointless scene where we learn that their recently deceased mother has bought Janssen the house. Is there any greater gift than one that not only reminds someone on a daily basis of the abusive relationship they endured but also the fact that they are a convicted murderer? Thanks, mom. Even the dreary cougar trend gets trotted out again in the form of a local delivery boy who is around long enough to get some play from Janssen and then get beat to a pulp by an invisible man in one of the least likely ghost attacks ever committed to film.

The problem with “100 Feet” is that the ghost isn’t much of a ghost. He’s so tangible and violent that he comes across less as a ghost and more as a raged-out invisible man. With its domestic violence angle and weird take on ghosts, the movie sometimes veers dangerously close to being “Sleeping with the (Invisible) Enemy”. This might play better for people who don’t usually find ghost movies scary because of the relative impotence of ghosts, but this ghost has so much power and is able to physically interact with the world so easily that you have to wonder why he even bothers with the spooky stuff and doesn’t just kill Janssen outright.

“100 Feet” unfortunately is not the sum of its parts. It has quite a talented cast and they all put in admirable and capable performances. It was written and directed by Eric Red, a guy with some serious genre cred who not only directed the underappreciated Jeff-Fahey-with-a-killer-arm movie “Body Parts”, but also wrote two of the brightest spots of 80s horror, “The Hitcher” and “Near Dark”. On paper “100 Feet” sounds like a home run but in actuality it’s a watchable but ultimately lackluster ordeal. It’s hard to get on board with a movie that manages to screw up a plot point that relates to its title and central premise: some of the film’s most significant scenes take place in the basement which is outside of the range of her ankle bracelet. If the range of the transmitter is indeed 100 feet, then she apparently lives in a 10 story house. I know it’s a horror movie and not a Freshman Geometry word problem, but for a film with a decent budget, name actors and a veteran writer/director it’s hard to let stuff like that slide.

Austin Film Festival

AUSTIN, Texas — The “house arrest” thriller was done to vastly better effect in “Disturbia,” but an underutilized gimmick isn’t the only way in which the goofy ghost story “100 Feet” comes up short. It’s a small niche fright flick at best, although producers can count on “X-Men” star Famke Janssen and the words “from the writer of ‘The Hitcher’ and ‘Near Dark’” to move some product on video-store shelves.

The Bottom Line Empty

Janssen plays a woman entering house arrest after serving time for killing her abusive husband, a policeman, in self-defense. Writer/director Eric Red gets off to an unnecessarily dumb start by asking us to believe the cop’s partner (Bobby Cannavale, laying the resentment on thick) would be put in charge of her case. Once she’s ankle- braceleted to the house (where the electricity hasn’t been turned back on, natch), hubby starts haunting her with every hokey trick in the ghostly book: flying dinner plates, runaway furniture and an ugly blood stain that just won’t go away.

Janssen’s fear in the face of all this is a bit more convincing than her New York accent, but certainly not enough so to make many of the film’s scares work for viewers. As a result, her anxious attempts to exorcise the unwelcome housemate don’t move us much. Viewers who make it to the third act though may find its over-the-top visual effects and faux-emotional resolution unintentionally funny enough to make it worthwhile.

100 FEET: Film Review

First released on UK DVD back in March 2009 by the now defunct DNC label, writer and director Eric Red’s robust twist on the haunted house subgenre receives a most welcome reissue this week courtesy of High Fliers. Why the company haven’t gone all promo cray-cray and made a big deal out of such a thing is nothing short of obscene; further proof that this irresistible jolter is easily one of the great underappreciated gems of the last decade.

Like Red’s best work – from his intense power script trio of the original HITCHER, the moody vampire pic NEAR DARK, and the glossy thriller BLUE STEEL; to his directorial wham-bang double of COHEN & TATE and the awesomely bonkers BODY PARTS – the lip-smackingly gimmicky 100 FEET is another concentrated blast of slick entertainment. Though its high concept premise is full of implausibilities and lapses of its own internal logic – particularly when it involves the titular confinement distance – 100 Feet is a potent scare-show well worth its less than ten quid asking price.

It’s a pretty damn hard-hitting and thoughtful narrative, with Red concerned as much with the psychological repercussions of domestic abuse as he is with crafting an immensely effective supernatural horror movie. Throughout his career – be it as a filmmaker or, more recently, as a novelist – Red has excelled at creating complicated central protagonists and X-MEN’s Famke Janssen – herself no stranger to volatile spookies after her ill-fated sojourn in the HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL (1999) – is tremendous as Marnie; her at once tough, vulnerable and feisty turn the perfect embodiment of Red’s beautifully written character arc. The horror elements are adroitly handled, with both Janssen and Red never less than wholly convincing in their reaction to and use of fright tactics. Janssen’s fear and ultimate determination to rid her home, in every sense, of the looming spectre of her dead husband is palpable and powerful. And, though his more wonderfully outrageous and lurid tendencies are still there – as evidenced by 100 Feet’s gorgeously brutal bedroom assault set piece – Red this time shoots for mood and atmosphere, and is aided by some wonderfully hair-raising sound design and the rich, textured photography of Abel Ferrara regular Ken Kelsch.

Less successful though is co-star Bobby Cannavale (who, incidentally, appeared in the late Sidney Lumet’s short-lived, and similarly numerically titled, TV legal drama 100 CENTRE STREET) as the obsessive Detective Shanks. In the right hands, his interplay with Janssen could have made for stirring, dramatic stuff; sadly, Shanks sinks thanks to Cannavale’s overly shouty interpretation and – and perhaps worst of all – Red’s reluctance to flesh the part out beyond sloppy caricature. The rest of the film’s limited cast are, thankfully, more than serviceable, with GOSSIP GIRL’S Ed Westwick a likable – if, again, somewhat thinly drawn – toyboy love interest, and eighties heartthrob Michael Paré – an alum of Red’s nifty nineties werewolf shocker BAD MOON – a surprisingly formidable presence as Marnie’s vicious, ghostly husband.

Movie review: 100 feet (2008).

7 comments:

And I didn't like it at all. The ghost husband looked ridiculous and the holy story was meh.

saw this a few years ago and enjoyed it about as much as you. The jaw scene was insane but mindblowingly awesome!

Been curious about this one for awhile now. May just have to check it out.

The ghost husband did look ridiculous but I did love this movie too! Especially loved how gruesome it was--poor Chuck Bass! (Sorry, I don't remember his real name!)

I need to give this one a chance, like you've said, Eric Red has yet to dissapoint with one of his films.

@Nebs: :( @Maynard: That scene made me want to walk around holding my jaw in place all day. Can you imagine how weird that would feel??? @Joel: Even I admit that it's not super-great but it's worth a look to see if it floats your boat. @Real Queen: It was so much gruesome than I thought it was going to be which is one of the things I loved about it. @Film Connoisseur: Red could definitely be a good director as well as an awesome writer, I'd love to see what else he could come up with. This film is much more contained than Near Dark or The Hitcher but I think he pulls it off well.

I haven't seen this one yet. But after reading the beginning of your review (I stopped to avoid possible spoilers) I decided to give it a watch & review for my horror blog. Thankfully Netflix has it to stream! Thanks! ;)

The Hundred-Foot Journey Reviews

Mirren is drily funny, deploying an arsenal of MasterChef-style horrified reaction shots.

Full Review | Apr 7, 2023

How wrong can you go with a comedy about beautiful people making beautiful food in the south of France? And Helen Mirren? The woman can turn 105 and she'll still be alluring, even when she's being haughty. Lots of laughs.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 19, 2022

It's an enjoyable film about passion; the passion for food, passion for culture but most of all, passion for life.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 1, 2021

This isn't your usual summer fare, because it cares far too much about the people whose story it is telling and it takes the time to let you get to know them.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 11, 2020

If you're into simple, pleasant movies that offer two-hour escapist entertainment, this may be for you.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Jul 20, 2020

[A] beautifully written story.

Full Review | Feb 5, 2020

Fulfilling, rich and delicious, The Hundred Foot Journey is an effervescent delight, sizzling with cinematic and emotional flavor.

Full Review | Dec 14, 2019

If films about the culinary arts revolved around the same strictures to obtain something like a Michelin star rating, The Hundred-Foot Journey would always and forever be a big fat zero.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | Aug 30, 2019

For foodies and folks looking for the cinematic version of a poolside paperback, THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY delivers. If you're seeking something with a little artistic nutrition, you'll need to look elsewhere.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5 | Apr 8, 2019

Overall, The Hundred-Foot Journey is not a bad dish, but considering its rich ingredients, it still lacks a bit of spice.

Full Review | Feb 27, 2019

There's an in-built contradiction between the film's attempt to position itself as an ode to cultural understanding while also being a commercially twee depiction of that tale

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 25, 2019

As you might imagine, visually, it's a stunning film, and the story is endearing. Dayal and Le Bon are charming, and Helen Mirren, well, is Helen Mirren.

Full Review | Original Score: 8/10 | Dec 11, 2018

"The Hundred-Foot Journey" is a delicious love story portraying the melting and blending of two opposing cultures.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 21, 2018

This underachieving cooking infomercial left me starving for a decent movie experience. Cancel your reservations to this rancid soufflé.

Full Review | Aug 21, 2018

Has a lot of pedigree behind it, but is sadly unable to transcend its habit of skimming through information and any form of drama whatsoever.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 13, 2018

If you don't leave the theatre wanting to visit France and eat Indian food, then you didn't enjoy it as much as I did. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 30, 2018

With its fine cast, glorious setting, and countless scenes of mouthwatering menus, The Hundred-Foot Journey is an appetizing alternative to summer's superheroes and zombies.

Full Review | Original Score: 7.5/10 | Dec 3, 2017

If you can deal with the uneven narrative - and in this case there's no reason you shouldn't - there is a lot to like about this film.

Full Review | Nov 28, 2017

Reality-bites are fleeting here. This is a food fairytale which prefers the sweet to the tart, cream to the karelas of life. Yet, it takes all those tastes to create a great dish.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 14, 2017

It may play out predictably, and feature more fake fireworks than it should, but The Hundred-Foot Journey is charming, with enough heart and genuine laughs to forgive its formulaic nature.
