The "Herald" critic is totally out to lunch. I "loved" this movie! Incredibly beautiful scenery,a heartwarming story and oh, the food--makes you want to catch the next flight to the south of France.If you love a good movie WITHOUT a barrage of bad language,violence and noise, go see it; it's lovely!!!
Very good light hearted film. All the actors gave great performances. Highly reccomended
I saw this movie last week at a preview. This is a must see on your movie list. If you see one movie this summer make it this one. It is funny and you didn't want it to end. Great movie for the whole family.
Great movie!
LOVED this movie. One of the best movies I have seen this year. I will watch it again. All the actors are naturals. Only downside, you will want to go out for Indian food right after the movie.
The movie depicts diverse cultures that find a common ground through their love of food. A light hearted, feel good movie that is appropriate for all ages.
I enjoyed this movie very much. Helen Mirren delivered a solid performance, the story was delightful, and the French countryside was a most delectable setting for a "Foodie" flick. Although the movie touched upon the issues of racism and classism, I felt these could have been further explored to provide the audience with a richer and more thought provoking context for the relationships that developed between the characters. I did feel the movie could have been more engrossing if a higher level of conflict and tension had been delivered. I left with a feeling of contentment and wish I could have savored one or two of the dishes featured in the film.
Fabulous feel good movie! Now I want to move to France and learn to cook. Cinematography was stunning and acting was superb.
Very good and witty
I had already read the book and I was not disappointed with the movie. I felt they did a good job portraying the characters. My husband did not want to go with me but after seeing the film he was glad he came.I would enjoy seeing it again. Big thumbs up.
