A couple of new food related movies are coming out soon including the much anticipated new Pixar movie, Ratatouille and a new film called No Reservations featuring Catherine Zeta Jones.
No Reservations hasn’t received great reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. It’s been labelled a romantic comedy chick flick so maybe this one is best to wait until it’s out on DVD. Ratatouille however has been very well received by critics in the US and it’s about a rat called Remy in Paris who dreams of becoming a chef. Cute story and great computer animations which is what Pixar is all about so I will be hanging out to see this one!
Some other great food related movies include:
* Like Water for Chocolate (loved the book - has anyone ever tried the receipies in it?)
* Chocolat
* Woman on Top (starring a sultry Penelope Cruz)
* Eat Drink Man Woman (haven’t yet watched it but will have to hire it soon)
* Mostly Martha (now being remade as No Reservations)
* Charlie and the chocolate factory
