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!

I had high expectations but was a bit disappointed. It had some funny parts but also very boring parts. Its just a rental....

this movie was excellent, i am 14 years old, and my dad is a chef in his restaurant in LA. when he heard about this movie, he couldn't wait to see it, he told me all about Julia Child. honestly, i wasn't that interested in seeing the movie. but, i immediately fell in love with it. i am asking for the dvd for my birthday!

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.
