Cook Off (DVD)

It's time once again for the Van Rookle Farms annual cooking challenge, where amateur chefs from around the country vie for a million-dollar prize but the menu of oddball entrants in this year's competition looks to be a recipe for disaster. Mockumentary ensemble farce from writer-director-star Cathryn Michon, dusted off after a decade on the shelf, co-stars Melissa McCarthy, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Niecy Nash, Diedrich Bader, and Louie Anderson. 88 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
