Critic Reviews

  • Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

    Sometimes movies make sense in a logical way; sometimes they make only emotional sense. No Reservations makes no damned sense at all.

  • Claudia Puig, USA Today

    No Reservations is worth penciling in to your schedule, though it's more guilty diversion than memorable feast.

  • Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star

    A shamelessly microwaved American rewarming of the 2002 German romantic comedy Mostly Martha.

  • Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

    The cast makes the film a warm and agreeable experience.

  • Bruce Newman, San Jose Mercury News

    You don't need to have been a fan of the terrific German film Mostly Martha that inspired this remake, or even to have seen the original, to recognize that her American cousin has a tendency to overcook things.

    More romantic/drama than a comedy. It has more heartfelt, feel good moments than any really laugh out loud scenes. Still it was a nice story, with a good cast and well made. Just always a bit predictable.

    A nice romantic film that is great for families.

    Catherine Zeta Jones plays Kate, a master chef in an upscale Manhattan Restaurant. The very single Kate has no time for romance as her life runs on planning and perfection!!! She's the Queen Bee in her restaurant kitchen,and when her sister is killed in an accident her life is… More

  • Luke B


    Not delightful, not funny, just a rather depressing drama. Everybody is kind of bland in this film, unlike the dishes they prepare. Eckhart plays the typical "come to shake it all up" guy, but even this seems forced. The films biggest problem is its weak female lead. Not so… More
