One word. B-O-R-I-N-G! This movie is EXACTLY like any other romantic comedy and is really pointless and a waste of time! Why did I even see this movie?

What Parents Need to Know
About No Reservations
Parents need to know that this romantic comedy has some serious themes, like the death of a single parent and an aunt who must care for her orphaned niece. Although it's rated PG and stars popular child actress Abigail Breslin, the film's protagonist, an emotionally withdrawn chef who doesn't have any healthy relationships, is not going to seem compelling to most kids. The dramedy also perpetuates the idea that ambitious, professionally successful women all have lonely personal lives. Still, at its heart, this is the typical odd-couple romantic movie with a little girl thrown in to stir the pot.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the difference between personal and professional success. How was Kate successful in one way but not the other? What did her kitchen employees think of her, and how did they react to Nick's work style? What did Zoe and Kate learn from each other?

Great Movie!!!!!!
I saw this movie on tv. It was great! I am getting the DVD it was so good. It is a bit sad in parts as the mother of the child dies. I gave it an 8 because at one point, the child, Zoey, runs away to see her mother at the cemetary. There is kissing and wine as they are in a resteraunt. Overall great movie for all!!!!!!

oh, come on! this is an awesome movie, and there is only a TINY bit of sexual refrenses!
all the reviews on this website say that this movie has too much sexual content and violence, but come on! the woman in the kitchen talks about some slightly inappropriate topics, but i didn't even notice! she says like one thing and then drops it. there is some mild language, but no violence, sex, or gore. this is a sweet movie for older kids and tweens.

Not really PG
This movie deals with way too much to be PG. A girl's mother dies, a woman talks about listening to music while having sex, tits and asshole are used, and a man and woman feed each other and kiss blindfolded. Altogether a great movie, but not for young ones. 12+ is better.

This is literally one of the best movies i have ever seen in my life! It is sweet, and funny at times, and at one point i accually cried. This is not the typical boy-meets-girl story, it is so much more than that. Everyone needs to see this movie. From 1-101. It really is the best ever.

It was great!!!
This movie is a wonderful movie!!! It is very touching. If you are looking for a feel good movie or a romantic movie to watch with some girlfriends at a sleepover then this is good!!! it has its sad moments and then it has its very happy moments. I think that this has absolutely no disturbing content of any kind! I TOTALLY recommend this movie to any one who is looking for a feel good movie!!!

Pretty good movie--nice mother-daughter night
We liked this movie--it was pretty suitable.

My husband and I really enjoyed this movie, but I'm glad we didn't take our nine-year-old daughter. I'm not sure she would have found it interesting, and I think she would have been troubled by some of the plot elements: the little girl's loss of her mother, of course; but also-- as in so many real-life situations-- the child in the movie starts to build a positive relationship with her aunt's boyfriend, only to be faced with the possibility of permanent loss of contact with him after the adults quarrel. Overall, though, a very pleasant movie.

Finally a movie that has emotion and flavor!
I loved this film! It's delightful, cheerful in some parts, and gives you a nice warm cozy feeling throughout the movie. Catherine Zeta-Jones was perfect for the role of Kate. The whole cast fit in perfectly. They all had sizzlin' chemistry. Anyone over the age of 11 would probably love this film. WATCH IT if you like Romance mixed in with Drama, Comedy, and Cooking.

No Reservations
So rarely to I find a movie that makes me laugh, cry, and hunger for more. But I found all of these qualities in No Reservations. I loved every moment from start to finish. This movie has some offensive content such as a few curse words, a little kissing, and a very sad car accident (off screen) that leaves a 10-year-old girl orphaned. I recommend this movie to anyone over the age of 11.
