Great film especially if you love food.
I thought everyone did a great job in their roles, however, I especially enjoyed Meryl Streep's performance! I thought she embraced her role perfectly and I really left feeling like I had a sense of who Julie really was...the movie had a nice mixture of drama and comic relief. I'd say it was a tad drawn out at times, but the performances made up for that! Also got a few cooking tips from the movie as well;)
Very clever movie. love the 2 parallel story lines.
Absolutely entertaining with great acting most notably by Ms. Streep. I believe there will be a huge run on purchases of Julia Child's book. After a crazy few days at work, this was the perfect antidote.
The movie was delicious and I ate every moment of sweetness up. Meryl Streep and Amy Adams were completely delightful. It's the perfect girls night out movie - make sure you have time after the show for wine (or gimlets) and cheese.
I really enjoyed the movie. It is the pure and ironic comedy. Thank you.
Nothing short of amazing for Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. The storyline is captivating. It provided a sense of comedy without taking away from the bigger picture. Overall, a feel good movie, that'll have you leaving the theatre hungry or wanting to cook everything in your fridge.
IT WAS JUST SOOOO SWEET!!, I START WATCHING THE MOVIE WITH HUNGRY AND I FINISH EVEN MORE HUNGRY BUT VERY HAPPY, ITS LOVELY, FUNNY AND THE MUSIC IT`S AMAZING, LIKE ALWAYS MERYL STREEP MAKING MAGIC ON SCREEN
The movie has inspired me to cook! Whether I do it is another story, but you can't help but feel good after watching this movie. There's more depth and earnest quirkiness than a typical chick-flick: it's got some heart. In a sense, it's more ambitious than any Nora Ephron movie too, with the 2 separate stories that never directly intersect. Ephron does an admirable job of giving equaal attention to both and showing how Julia influences Julie, without the movie feeling disjointed. In fact, there are times when the result is utterly delicious.
Great movie! Meryl Streep is phenomenal, and the shots of Paris are to die for. Loved how the 2 story lines were in sync with each other. Two inspiring true stories. All around a great flick.
