No Reservations: Watch After Dinner

Certain movies have a way of really pushing it. They drown you in seas of emotion and slap you in the face with so many "cutesy" one-liners, that you by the end of the 2 hours you are basically begging for it all to stop! I am speaking of films that pour on the romance so thickly that you really know that it’s a film that can’t possibly mirror anything that you would find in real life…

       There is surely an audience for this type of over the top emotional films, and I will admit that I have been drawn into the luster of it all more than once. I suppose these films do well to draw some viewers away from their own worries and strife, catapulting them into a storyline that leaves them feeling better about life and the world around them, but to me it all seemed a bit put on.

        No Reservations stars Catherine Zeta-Jones as top chef Kate of the upscale restaurant 22 Bleeker. After a car accident takes the life of her sister, Kate reluctantly becomes the guardian of her young niece Zoe, played by Dakota Fanning, er, I mean Abigail Breslin. Having no idea what to do with a child, and juggling an incredibly hectic work schedule, Kate struggles to adjust to taking care of young Zoe. With a little help from sous chef Nick (Aaron Eckhart) and some well-scripted one line "life lessons" from her therapist (Bob Balaban), Kate adjusts to life with the niece. Obviously things are not ALL sunshine and roses, so expect a few hiccups along the way.

       Overall, this movie accomplished exactly what I thought it would. My wife was in tears. To put it mildly, this picture tears out your heart, steps on it, teases you by beginning to fix it, cruelly smashes it with a hammer, and then intricately repairs it for good, leaving it better than it was to begin with. The one thing I take issue with is that fact that with a story like this, there is predictability that something tragic will happen. Things move along at such a loving pace that as a viewer I realize that it cannot remain so amazingly sappy and positive and cheery. I figured with a film of this type, there must be a climax. I kept waiting for something negative to happen so the characters could go through the rigmarole of being depressed and then subsequently righting all the wrongs that have been done and ending things happily ever after. The seemingly unending wait took something away from the film for me. When my waiting finally did pay off, it felt like the film ended thirty seconds later.

       The acting was good, although possibly a bit overdone in spots. I swear that Abigail Breslin could make even Saddam Hussein cry! The girl turns on her "sad face" and the world melts. She does it well, although it’s not the only trick in her bag. She shines as a young star and will definitely mature into an even greater actress with age. The chemistry between Eckhart and Zeta-Jones could have been amazing, if it had been given more of a chance. It felt like the movie just slapped these two together and said here, now make out.

        No Reservations does leave viewers with that good feeling in the pit of their stomachs that (even if only momentarily) makes one feel like the world may actually be a better place than previously thought. The characters do well to tug at the heart strings of most viewers and it seems fairly easy to lose yourself inside this film. It definitely fits quite nicely into the category of "chick flick", so if that’s your bag, you may love this.
