For a person who sees just about every single movie that is released, I must recommend you all to see Julia & Julia. I was a little puzzled when the movie started out by mentioning "based on two true stories." I said to myself, "I wonder how the hell, they are going to pull this one off." And pulled it off, they sure did. The entire movie was spilt into two stories, the life of Julia Child in 1949, and the life of Julia Powell's in modern day 2002. I don't want to give away anything about the film, especially to those who haven't seen it. But I will say that this is by far one of the best feel good and uplifting movies I have seen this year. Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci make an amazing duo. The entire time I had weird flashbacks from seeing them two in "The Devil Wears Prada," which was another great film. However, the role of Amy Adams, even though, I see played great, came off to me as a little masculine, maybe it was just her haircut in the movie. Regardless, go see Julia & Julia. In fact, take your mother, sister, grandma or girlfriend to see it. Anyone who appreciates good food wrapped around a great success story will definitely enjoy it.
Until next time, have a great day
