  • If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the cinema! Kitchen movies are quite the fad right now, what with Waitress on release, and Pixar's Ratatouille at your local car boot(-leg) sale. A... read more »

    What do we have on the menu here ? A good scoop of the notorious rivalry between chefs, a large helping of romance, add a cool young kid for good measure, and mix it all up. Though it might not be the most stunningly original story to hit the big screen, it should definately make it onto your main order. This an excellent feel good, mostly fluffy, film about breaking down barriers. Young 11 year old Abigail Breslin is brilliant as Zoe, and the whole thing just works for me.

    So can you after all share a kitchen, and share a life, watch it and find out. A definate recommended watch.

    Rubbish - See the original

    This American version of Mostly Martha is not only disappointing; it is painful to sit through. It is embarassing to watch Zeta Jones walk in the shadow of a great performance and not even that well. Every moment and gesture is literally copied from the original. What made Martina Gedeck's performance so touching was the balance between a remote, stressed out, highly rated chef and a woman trying to reach out to her niece. Eckhart at least brought some flair to the role that was fresh, though still not up to par with the brillianc eof Sergio Castellito.

    And like too many American films, saccharine moments were added and the end was changed to something more convenient.
