Meh, what a nice movie indeed. Nothing funny about it, nothing beautiful about it, no great acting performances, nothing special, so that's why it's pretty monotonous. Not boring, but just not really good.

What a boring sit! Despite the trump card of a mesmerizing Penélope Cruz, the film occasionally caused you to doze off. Difficult to get through because the story has no humor and there is little romance to experience despite the fact. A lot of cooking stuff that didn't really come across as interesting and towards the end the film has a very corny effect. Weak ! 4/10
