    Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
    ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
    Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
    Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
    ngorelov Chopped Canada is an awful, and at times disgusting cooking show. The fact that cooks are given weird, and completely random & unexpected combinations of ingredients, and are expected to make something very good out of it in 30 minutes, isn't good. Some cooks make acceptable meals, which are descent, but a lot of them create nasty meals which looks nasty. For example, in one of the episodes a cook made soup with meatballs or something like that. The soup looked like dog urine, and the meatballs looked like poop. Why would anyone wanna eat that, tell me? If proper, delicious meals are to be made, than ingredients have to match, so that in the final product the meal has a good balance of spices, salt, pepper, ingredients, and all that.Overall, Chopped Canada should just be canceled, and shut down, because I think almost everyone hates it. Of course as I said there are some descent meals made by cooks there, but other than that most of it is nasty, and just makes me want to vomit. Nobody wants to see those disgusting looking meals. If anyone who participated in the production of Chopped Canada, or anyone who made it is seeing this, then don't be offended, because its just the most honest truth I'm telling you. Just shut it down, honestly its nasty. This is a big suggestion I'm telling you to do, so just cancel the show, because like I said before no-one wants to see this disgusting stuff getting made.Thanks for taking your time to read this. Sincerely, Anonymous. (Oh I'm so anonymous, that I feel like a secret agent undercover, loll)
    VxViper The "Chefs" that compete on this show seem to lack culinary knowledge and often seem to refer to themselves as "Cooks" and not Chefs, for those who don't know, trained chefs NEVER refer to themselves as "Cooks". The show also has a theme that they want to make sure you know this is a Canadian show by having a Canadian ingredient in each basket and making sure that they keep talking about how it's Canadian. Don't get me started on the Judges, they tend to be pretty condescending and themselves competing against their fellow judges. Having Dean McDermott as host is something hard to swallow (no pun intended), the choice to put him in as host was a bad one giving his shady past that many in the US audience can't forgive/forget. All in all, more thought went into building the set of the show rather than the dynamics of the show itself.
    LeDentalPlaque I'm from Canada, but I find that Chopped US is much more entertaining than Chopped Canada. I think the primary reason is the host and judges on the show. They don't seem to find judging as fun and jolly as those in the US version, and there's a much more serious and duller tone throughout each episode as compared to the US version.It's still nice to see talented Canadian chefs compete on Chopped Canada, but I find that if I were to choose, I would definitely prefer the original US series to this one. Like another reviewer said, there's no "wow" factor here, and it's pretty boring and lacking in some areas.In addition, I feel as if the host, Dean McDermott, does not do a good job at hosting the show at all. Compared to Ted Allen, he doesn't bring about a passion for cooking like he does, and he doesn't fit the bill of host quite well.
    eileenlauren Alas, Chopped Canada, is missing the WOW! factor. It is a boring show. Unfortunately, a show in the Chopped vein must have a great Host. This show does not. I found myself looking forward to a commercial not what was going to happen next. The Host has no stage presence, camera appeal, even his look lacks any appeal whatsoever. Even the Judges have nothing important let alone interesting to say or add to the show. The entire show leaves me bored. Too bad, I'm a huge fan of CHOPPED! This show deserves to be revamped, rewritten, and perhaps that would make watching it worthwhile. It might be a good idea if the Producers, writers, judges, Host, even contestants all watch the original CHOPPED to draw inspiration from. I doubt CHOPPED CANADA will get any better though. It's just really, really, and I mean really a dull TV show. I'd only watch it if all the other TV channels were blacked out. Perhaps a new Host would turn the show around.
