The half of this movie dedicated to the fabulous Parisian world of Julia Child and her doting husband deserve recognition. The wardrobe, setting, and food were superb! The tension seemed real; there were multidimensional portraits of all the characters in that storyline. I found myself dreading when the movie would switch back to Amy Adams' and Chris Messina's neurotic, flat marriage.
Idk why Adam's took this role. She's a great actress but the woman she played in this movie was a straight up beeyotch with very few few redeeming qualities. None of her friends, nor her husband, had any roundedness to their characters, and all she did was complain!
I was not into her half of the film, but Julia Child's story was much, much more compelling
It's a good movie for a rainy day or a day you're feeling adventurous cooking... Bc it will make you hungry!
