Charles C @RT63214632 12/23/2023 A fun, informative search into the origins of not just General Tso's chicken, but American Chinese food as we know it today. Quite well produced. See more 01/12/2022 I thought that almost all of the documentary was great. I would have liked a little more description of what actually was in the original version, more than just it doesn't have sweetener, broccoli, and scallions. But I thought that they did the "search" well. However, am I the only person that was horrified by some of the imaging used? Did they seriously use something that looked like the Japanese rising sun flag when showing the Chinese immigrants spreading from the San Francisco Bay area to other parts of the US? They also used this cartoon-like imagery a few more times later in the film. I was horrified and I'm not even of Asian decent. See more 01/13/2021 I found this a fascinating documentary on a food I eat once a month. See more 02/10/2018 So the dish was inventor is in Taiwan ;D Felt so weird that there were so many foreigners in the movie talking about Chinese history .. See more 09/04/2017 "Chickity China, the Chinese chicken!" See more 07/04/2017 Pretty boring for most of its short length, taking 45 minutes to really get into the title's promise. Seem alike a short film would've been better for this story. See more Read all reviews
