Entertaining adaptation of "bella marta" - No Reservations Reviews

This adaptation of the German film "Bella Marta/Mostly Martha" is light and entertaining; a good American Romantic Comedy. Catherine Zeta-Jones, while not quite believable as a chef, does a good job at portraying the controlling ice maiden who shuts out others to protect herself. Aaron Eckhart, while also not believable as a chef, is believable as every woman's dream man who can cook, romance, and loves children too. If you are looking for a light-hearted romantic comedy that deals with themes of love, loss, and forming new relationships, you'll love this film. I would compare it to "French Kiss" and "Notting Hill"--fun to see with girlfriends. However, if you want a bit more depth, I recommend getting "Bella Marta" and watching it.
