Chocolat

ONE TASTE IS ALL IT TAKES.

A mother and daughter move to a small French town where they open a chocolate shop. The town, religious and morally strict, is against them, as they represent free-thinking and indulgence. When a group of gypsies arrive by riverboat, the Mayor's prejudices lead to a crisis.

  • Ariella May
    Not my cup of tea. The storyline was predictable and the characters lacked depth.
    Rating: 2

  • Apollo Floyd
    A gripping story with strong performances. The ending was a bit predictable, but overall a great watch.
    Rating: 4

  • Davina Powers
    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.
    Rating: 1.5

  • Marisol Curry
    A fun, light-hearted movie that's perfect for a weekend watch. Not too deep, but enjoyable.
    Rating: 3.5

  • Jesus Blair
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.
