It hooks you up, happily, to your inner top chef.

Julie & Julia makes deboning a duck a feminist act and cooking a great meal a creative triumph. The stakes may not be as high as the kill-or-be-killed suspense of a summer action movie, but the sauces are way tastier.

Streep is astonishing, conveying Child's gusto, her quavering voice, even her height.

As enjoyable as this foodie movie is, you wish it would take a deeper, more nuanced measure of the women who, in two different eras, star in the movie's kitchens.

Julie & Julia is full of holes, but you don't even care when Streep is onscreen.
