The Independent

Boiling Point does a thorough job of parachuting you into the sweaty, unforgiving confines of a restaurant kitchen. It’ll be hard not to cheer in response to those words.

The Arts Fuse

Boiling Point is as suspenseful a film as anything else I’ve seen this year.

Sight and Sound

Boiling Point is a virtuoso filmmaking feat, and one that could only have been achieved through an extraordinary team effort on both sides of the camera.

Common Sense Media

Tense one-shot restaurant drama has strong language, drugs.

Esquire

Once one becomes aware that the pleasure of the plate is offset by the unhappiness of those who get the food there, how can one dine as one did before?

Letterboxd

Boiling Point is an anxiety inducing tumultuous experience revolving around 20 minutes inside a kitchen. I love how the ending has him open the doors to the kitchen and you think he’s cracking on with it, but he isn’t and he won’t and doesn’t.

Rotund Reviews

Then, I watched the movie and everything changed. The movie is brilliant... This film made me stop doing everything else and completely focus on it, it was too hard to look away.

IMDb

If ever you've worked in hospitality at The Festive season, you'll be able to recognise and feel the pressure... Stephen Graham is one of the best, his performance here is outstanding...
