Rating: B --
"Constructing Albert" introduces us to an intensely focused man who values his family and the people who help bring his ideas to life as much as he does forging a new path in the culinary world.

Mildly entertaining, but mostly dull, hagiographic and occasionally drags.

NYC Movie Guru
The movie is 82 minutes of Albert nattering on about wanting to be better, but he talks about food only in the abstract.

Interestingly, this might be the first food-related documentary that left me without feeling any kind of craving.

Tribune News Service
The film... shows how these meals are built from the ground up, and with backbreaking work. It also addresses, albeit not with too much specificity, the economic anxieties of creating these businesses.

Product Description:
World-renowned Catalan chef Ferran Adrià made his mark on the culinary world as head chef of the restaurant elBulli. But his younger brother Albert also tapped into his impressive creativity when he began working for his brother at age 15, eventually spearheading research and development for elBulli. Now, Albert is attempting to step out of his brother's shadow by ambitiously building his own culinary dynasty in Barcelona with a series of innovative restaurants and projects. Co-directed by Laura Collado and Jim Loomis, and written by Collado.
