    This is such a good movie having to do with family relations. I love the role that food has in this movie, though it made me quite hungry!

    It was cute and I enjoyed watching it, but that was about all.

    Hector was as expected"Brillant!"...but this movie was unfortunate and a little sad in comparison to the original,"Eat, Drink, Man, Woman" which was beautiful and masterful in it's storytelling. Oh well, I did not like it.

    Loved this movie! It had a great message about family and love. It makes me very happy to see movies with an all hispanic cast!

    Awesome cast. Food looked so beautiful and delicious. Good to see a movie with Latino main characters. Great movie for everyone.
