Synopsis

Academy Award winner Catherine Zeta-Jones (Chicago) teams with Academy Award-nominated director Scott Hicks (Shine) for this remake of the 2001 smash-hit German comedy Bella Martha about a frosty, workaholic, perfectionist chef who must surrender some control of her restaurant to a carefree male colleague (Aaron Eckhart - Paycheck, Erin Brockovich) when she becomes the guardian of her willful young niece (Abigail Breslin - Little Miss Sunshine) after the girl's parents are involved in a tragic accident.

With its tantalizing blend of comedy, romance and food, No Reservations is a feast to savor.

Some Great Cinematography in This Family Drama
06 December 2008
Unlike the trailers imply for this movie, "No Reservations" is more a family drama rather than a romantic comedy. There is lavish bitter dark pathos of death in the beginning of the movie and the more colorful look at restaurant cooking while there are bits of humor scattered like sweets throughout the movie. There are some amazing close up scenes that really grab the attention of the audience with the emotions and captivating context of the scenes, the color motif is brilliant. Overall, the script is basic and mostly predictable with some good tie-ins and closures. It's Catherine Zeta Jones that really makes this movie deliciously sparkle. Entertaining and fun for the summer with good flashes of cooking on part with "Ratatouille" that came out just a little earlier.
