	Author	Review
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"As a movie, 'Wolfgang' is short and sweet enough that I’m sure it leaves things out. But what’s there is real, and as savory as it should be."	POS
United States	Jason Bailey The New York Times	"[It] says much about what Wolfgang Puck has done, and very little about who he is"	NEU
United States	Dan Callahan The Wrap	"The most impressive element of 'Wolfgang' is the amount of ground it manages to cover in 78 minutes without ever seeming to rush over anything"	POS
United States	Odie Henderson rogerebert.com	"It’s strikingly pretty (...) It’s also startlingly tame, as if its subject, famous celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck, was a commodity whose brand needed to be protected (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times	"An inspiring, briskly entertaining look at Wolfgang Puck (...) The film paints a vigorous portrait of how the Austrian-born Puck strove for success"	POS
United States	Brian Lowry CNN	"'Wolfgang' nicely demonstrates how its namesake fundamentally impacted the world of cooking (...) For that alone it's worth watching, even if, as documentaries go, it's less a main course than an appetizer."	NEU
United States	John Serba Decider	"'Wolfgang' is far (far!) from hard-hitting journalism, but fans of the man and the brand will enjoy this concise, 78-minute bio. So I say STREAM IT, but with (wait for it) (brace yourselves) (here it comes) reservations."	NEU
