No Reservations
The film is about the master chef, Kate Armstrong, who manages her life and kitchen realistically and without boredom or fatigue. Kate's life may change when her sister moves away and leaves her a little girl to raise. It looks like many confrontations and situations that seem more exciting to Kate, especially when a new soup chef threatens to grab her kitchen suddenly.

Catherine Zeta-Jones controls the kitchen, but can't control my attention.

No Reservations is worth penciling in to your schedule, though it's more guilty diversion than memorable feast.

To see No Reservations is to see what's wrong with a lot of American movies. A remake Mostly Martha, it takes a winning recipe and adds some distinctly Hollywood flavors: It takes adult characters and has them behave like children.

Like the well-known joke about Chinese fare %u2014 No Reservations satisfies while you're sitting down at the table, but an hour later you're hungry again.

Chalk it up as an alternative to watching a kitchen full of singing rats.

Sometimes movies make sense in a logical way; sometimes they make only emotional sense. No Reservations makes no damned sense at all.

A shamelessly microwaved American rewarming of the 2002 German romantic comedy Mostly Martha.

Not bad, not amazing. Just a classy romantic comedy that, like a good meal, is enjoyable enough to partake of, but the taste of which will fade soon thereafter.

...there's not much sparkle in the movie and even less spark to the love story.

You don't need to have been a fan of the terrific German film Mostly Martha that inspired this remake, or even to have seen the original, to recognize that her American cousin has a tendency to overcook things.

There's nothing in this story that you haven't seen before, and you'll know everything that's going to happen long before it does, yet it's all done with such charm and style that you won't care.

The cast makes the film a warm and agreeable experience.
