Great fun. I loved the interludes throughout the main story. Their thematic connection--the love of food--serves to undergird Tampopo's story of becoming a better ramen cook. The whole film combines these disparate ingredients into a delightful meal filled with humor and (not too schmaltzy) sentiment.

One of those sneaky-great films that proves that greatness can come in an endless variety of shapes and sizes (which, it occurs to me, is a pretty fair synopsis of the plot as well). A celebration of the love, joy, and comfort which great cooking can bring, dashed off with just enough surreal irreverence and humor to make it truly unique. I fucking love ramen.

Probably best viewed with a native Japanese guide, this is an endearing story with sometimes quirky humor and hidden layers that Westerners might not understand.

Watching this was delightful. Before I knew it, my worries in life briefly melted away. Watching Tampopo improve her ramen so eagerly is as pure as cinematic joys can get. Simple, sophisticated, warm, and surprising. And also the egg scene.

A supremely oddball set of loosely connected vignettes about delicious food and its connection with life itself. Seems like a lot of these segments ended before they could really make a statement, but it was still a largely enjoyable way to trigger all of my food cravings.

The film looks beautiful, with some fantastic blocking and cinematography, including an impressive amount of one-shots. The story does get drawn out a bit too much, and the pacing kind of shoots itself in the foot when it goes off tangent in various parts. But it's certainly enjoyable.
