Amazon.com:
Mostly Martha is a rich addition to the recent banquet of movies about food. Martha (Martina Gedeck), the domineering chef at a fancy restaurant, has her rigid routine broken when her sister dies in a car wreck, leaving behind her 9-year-old daughter Lina (Maxime Foerste). Martha takes the girl in, but has no gift for maternal expression; she offers Lina food, but Lina refuses to eat. Meanwhile, her control over her kitchen is threatened when her boss hires a buoyant Italian named Mario (Sergio Castellitto) to assist, and Martha finds herself flailing in an effort to reestablish control of her life. While Mostly Martha may not hold many surprises, the writing, direction, and particularly the acting are as sumptuous and sensual as the cooking and eating. The relationship between Martha and Lina is portrayed with all its awkwardness and complications intact; the result is wonderfully affecting. --Bret Fetzer

This movie is really charming, not a bit trite like it's distant U.S. cousin "No Reservations" . The German take on this improbable love story is refreshing. It has drama, adventure, and delicate humor. You must see this film. Have a wonderful time!

Beyond great! A true tour of the heart and a reminder that the sun rises - always. An absolute "upper'
I was lifted up by this film! There was so much unassuming joy scattered throughout this story. It was so hopeful in the face of the worst kind of loss; a message that there is light at the end of all of our dark tunnels. And a clear reminder that we are not in control. The whole script seemed a solid comment on the resilience of the spirit and the strength of the truest kind of love, that ... Read More

This movie is one of the best that I have ever watched. I have seen it maybe 25 times... I don't seem to tire of it. It has almost everything you could want in a movie - tension, love, sweetness, hope, loss... everything.
The actors are marvelous - they are not perfect looking people - that makes it even better. The scenes with the therapist are wonderful. The small niece is very believable.
The American movie version RESERVATIONS with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Aaron Eckhart is ... Read More

German film with English subtitles. Story centered around Martha, a 30-something, unmarried chef who works at a high end restaurant in Hamburg - and is considered by her boss to be the 2nd best chef in the city (much to Martha's chagrin). Martha is obsessed with her cooking and is a perfectionist. She's high strung, compulsive, obsessive and more comfortable with her food and cooking than with people - she is cool and distant with most she interacts with. She takes criticism about her cooking personally ... Read More
