In this remake of the award-winning European romantic comedy Mostly Martha, a perfectionist chef (Catherine Zeta-Jones) addicted to her work struggles to adjust when her sister passes away leaving her with a little girl (Abigail Breslin) to raise and a new soup-chef (Aaron Eckhart) threatens to take over her kitchen with his high-spirited and free-wheeling ways.
Reviews:
Damn you, Michael Douglas, keeping Catherine Zeta-Jones' singular beauty in the confines of your friggin' mansions and off the big screen. Her first feature since that meh Zorro sequel in 2005 was outshined by the vaguely similar Ratatouille, but that's no reason to avoid it. CZJ plays a top Manhattan chef whose regimented existence is thrown into chaos when she becomes guardian of her dead sister's child (Little Miss Sunshine's Abigail Breslin).
