This is the most incredible movie. I can't quite describe it without spoiling it. I didn't expect to like or even love this movie, but it has come to being one of my favorites for its "magical" quality of showing how scared people are to actually feel what they only dream of.The basic story is of a girl trying to save her mother's business. She has some help from an unlikely source: herself. There is of course a love story involved, but mostly it is about Amanda finding out who she is and admitting to herself that she is talented. Sarah Michelle Gellar is great in this movie! This character is completely different from that of Buffy or that of in Cruel Intentions. This movies is also full of some funny lines, like, "Amanda. You must make all the women love me and all the men give me their wallets." Because, how many people would want that with magical powers? It's all in good fun and this flick can't be taken seriously. Hope you enjoy.

i adore this movie. it's got everything that makes me feel like it was a good choice.sure it's cheesy and silly, but that's the reason you watch. it's a cute little movie that's great to rent for the weekend (like i did) the cooking even inspired me to do some of my own. i might have nearly burnt the house down and reminded myself of why i never cook but i was in such a happy mood that it didn't matter.if you love sweet little romantic comedies then Simply Irresistible is definitely a movie you need to see. it might not be in the same class as some others but it's so lovely you can't help but like it.see it, if you don't like it then no big deal but if you do like it...you'll love it.

FYI -There is a wee spoiler in this text.Here is another food movie to make you cringe like you never cringed before. The producers in this caramelized eye sore serve you a Pâté de Poor Acting on a soggy bed of Flimsy Plot. The music score gets more syrupy by the minute and by the time the movie finally ends the notes are oozing down the screen. Worth enjoying were scenes of various actors getting mouthgasms and rolling their eyes with every bite of Sarah Michelle Gellar's dishes. Unfortunately, by the third time you have witnessed this act of convulsive eating it has all but lost its charm. So if you can't resist killing time then see Simply Irresistible, but if you have a choice then move on to greener spinach. Better yet, if you are in the mood for a good food film, then see "Chocolat" directed by Lasse Hallstöm. Bon Appetit!

Have you ever wondered what happened to those actors who made one of the most renowned films a while back but seem to have disappeared from the face of the earth? And then all of a sudden they make a comeback and next thing you know they are in every movie you watch. The same happened to me with Sean Patrick Flannery. I did love his character in Boondock Saints and I said to my self 'huh, what happened to those guys?' and next thing I know I see him in a movie such as this. Now what can I say about this particular movie? Simply nothing. The trailer made it look like a kooky love story with a witch so you can imagine a lot of hilarious situations. However, i was dead wrong; the movie from the very start lost its attraction and the whole of it seemed to focus on nothing but pains and hardship a normal relation may go through (assuming you have ever had relations with a witch before). The magic element is all in the food and it plays a very rare part in the entire movie. What was the point of the movie? it was not funny and it was slow. Way too slow for my taste. It would be however a good romance flick so don't even think about sitting this movie with your buddies and drink beers. Its mushy mushy time and get your handkerchief ready for a sad movie (very sad indeed).
