Cookbook banks on the humor of its caricatures and the heft of its moral dilemma, but because it never develops its characters beyond types, it comes off as flat and forced throughout.

Strains for a jazzy, Oliver Stone-ish look, but at its heart it is a placid and conventional moral tale about the dangers of wandering too far off the pathway.
An ill-conceived effort that starts OK but quickly goes off the rails.
An admirably ambitious political satire but is stronger on soundtrack narration than on-camera dramatization.
