Achieving balance in one's life can be a difficult process, but master chef Kate Armstrong (Catherine Zeta-Jones) leads a regimented, very ordered existence running the kitchen of an exclusive restaurant and revels in the sense of power and control her career affords. When Kate's sister is unexpectedly killed in an automobile accident and her 9-year old niece Zoe (Abigail Breslin) comes to live with Kate, Kate's life is turned completely upside down and she is suddenly forced to split her focus between work and family. Enter a newly hired, fun-loving, opera-singing sous chef Nick Palmer (Aaron Eckhart), whom Kate perceives as a serious rival, and thus begins an impassioned struggle on Kate's part to rein in Nick's exuberance and maintain control over her kitchen staff. Even as they clash, Kate is inexplicably drawn toward Nick, eventually coming to the realization that Nick offers something that she needs both in her restaurant kitchen and her new life with Zoe. Based on the screenplay for Mostly Martha, Catherine Zeta-Jones carries the lead well in this romantic comedy and there's a nice chemistry between herself and Aaron Eckhart as well as a poignant performance by Abigail Breslin. And, of course, and the food looks simply scrumptious. --Tami Horiuchi

From director Scott Hicks comes a sweet story about love, loss and fire in the kitchen. "No Reservations" starring Catherine Zeta-Jones, Aaron Eckhart and Abigail Breslin is a family version of the FOX TV hit "Hell's Kitchen." I half expected Chef Ramsay to come out and begin cussing everyone out. I loved this tender romance film. Coincidence that I saw this movie a week or two before "Waitress," a similarly-themed movie? I don't think so. While "Waitress" had some rougher language, this movie has ... Read More

The original - Bella Martha - is a very tasteful (not superior but touching) German movie with actual people, somewhat melancholic but still a comedy (the soft, melancholic humor suits the story so much better than slapstick humor). Don't watch this, get the original. When comparing these two versions of the same story (in every detail), you can see a vast difference which, for me, lies mostly in the "reality" of the movie. In "Bella Martha" I "buy" it, the characters, the plot, the setting. In "No ... Read More

Despite what I recall of the advertising campaign last year, this soft-hearted 2007 film is far less a Food Network-derived romantic comedy than a Lifetime-oriented drama about grief and work/life balance. Directed by Scott Hicks (Shine) and written by first-timer Carol Fuchs, this film offers the most insightful peek into the workings of an upscale Manhattan restaurant since 2000's Dinner Rush (i.e., if you don't count last year's CGI-generated, French food-fest, Ratatouille), but it also seems intent ...

I like both Catherine Zeta-Jones and Aaron Eckhart but they don't come across well in this film. She's stiff and unlikable, and he just doesn't fit the role of a passionate, opera-loving chef. Neither actor is helped by the fact that this movie isn't quite sure what it wants to be. It jumps haphazardly from drama to cliched scenes of pillow fighting and a particularly banal clip of a desperate Zeta-Jones interviewing a quick succession of odd looking people for a chef's job, which I assume was meant ...
