I loved it. Great character development. The past is beautifully detailed. The present is touching. Meryl is Julia Child and it's so fun to watch her act. The whole cast was enjoyable. The story is touching, realistic and the food, well aside from Meryl, it steals the show. Don't go hungry!

Just came from seeing the movie (8/19/09). If you love Meryl you'll enjoy it. Some laughs, good personifications, but it really disappointed us (me and my wife). Just rent it.
