I always like to say that I like people who have passion, no matter what this passion is. Well, I loved this film because it is all about passion. Passion of two people for cooking.
We start with the fact that the film is based in two different books of two different persons, at two different times! And that's already awesome! Thank you Nora Ephron!
Now, the leading parts are played by two amazing actresses: Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. I'm gonna say this a lot of times here, but I LOVE MERYL STREEP! She's just amazing in everything she does, and if I had written a book, I would want her to play my part.
I couldnt forget, of… -
While Meryl Streep as Julia Child is extremely enjoyable, Amy Adams' "modern" Julia is grating.

Dieser Film ist unendlich langweilig und uninteressant.

Μας έκανε και ψάχναμε νυχτιάτικα να βρούμε βίντεο της Τζούλια Τσάιλντ. Και μετά κάναμε μιμήσεις τη φωνή της.

I really like the Julia parts. I don't like the Julie parts. This would have been much better as just a Julia Child biopic.

I took one for the team here.

Although in content this is a fairly bland film, it makes up for it in its good-natured and gentle comedy. Some excellent actors are in this film, such as Meryl Streep, Amy Adams and Jane Lynch, and the characters in the film are well-rounded and believable. Although it probably won't make any top tens, this is certainly a pleasant film.

Bon appetit!

An inoffensive piece of fluff with a typically solid performance from Meryl Streep.

I ended up feeling like Julie was using Julia. If that was what real life Julie intended, then this is a very good adaptation.

At least the food was enticing.

3.5 stars for the part with Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci. 1/2 a star for the rest of the movie. i guess it averages out.
