This Movie Is An Entertaining, Adult Fairy Tale
This Mexican movie is like a child's fable--only for adults. The wicked mother tells her youngest daughter that she can never marry because it is the tradition of the family that the youngest daughter has to take care of the mother until her death. And guess which daughter like Cinderella falls in love first. Tita, the youngest, is smitten with Pedro, who is also smitten with her. But Mama says no; so to be near Tita, Pedro marries her oldest sister. Tita, so forlorn, concentrates on learning to cook from the master cook of the house, Nacha. Eventually, she is so good that her recipes transform the mood of the family lots of different ways. They can make them sick, lecherous, but mostly in love. Tita eventually gets a boyfriend--Dr. John MD--which complicates the story, but mostly ... This Mexican movie is like a child's fable--only for adults.

Eventually, she is so good that her recipes transform the mood of the family lots of different ways. They can make them sick, lecherous, but mostly in love. Tita eventually gets a boyfriend--Dr. John MD--which complicates the story, but mostly the story is about the star-crossed lovers Tita and Pedro. The ending too is also supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! The recipes described in the movie are included in the book but not the DVD. The unknown actors are very refreshing too. But watch out. The movie can be viewed in English with or without English subtitles. But unless you adjust the movie, it will play speaking Spanish. I did not know that and viewed it with English subtitles and Spanish spoken. It would have been better if I had been more aware.

amazing story
Normally I wouldn't give a movie such as this a second glance, I'd chalk it up to a 'B' movie and not even rent it. Thank goodness my sister brought it home with her years ago when we shared an apartment in our younger, wilder days. Watching because everyone else was I found myself extremely interested and now in love with this story. Yes the movie is older and simple, some of the acting is lacking and it was low budget I'm sure but the Story the simple story is beautiful and speaks volumes....a classic story of love ... real love being right there but denied for reasons of the world the lovers live in. A very spiritual and deep ending for these two makes this story unique. If yoiu have the chance watch it... I'm so glad I did.Normally I wouldn't give a movie such as this a second glance, I'd chalk it up to a 'B' movie and not even rent it.

Like Water for Chocolate
The subtitles didn't bother me in this passionate tale of forbidden love. Exquisite movie! You can't stop watching....it took off from the beginning and held you close. Tita and Pedro are passionately in love, but the family has an ancient tradition. The youngest girl in the family must remain unmarried to care for her parents. Tita's mother is a woman who is unyielding and stern, so Pedro marries Tita's older sister so he can be near her. In the story, you feel the sexual tension between the two and so for Tita, she takes on the part of the family cook and transforms food into sexual passion for Pedro by using ordinary spices. Her creations bring out the heated desires in everyone. Just watch the range of emotions on their faces while they are eating. The passion is apparent in ...

Very sensual movie and you feel so deeply for Tita and Pedro. It also has it's comic moments when her sister takes off with some bandits only to return much later as their leader. She knows the love Tita and Pedro feel for each other and takes Tita's side in all this. The sister that Pedro marries is a shrew at best and she knows she will never have her husband's love so she can make it miserable for Tita at times. This is probably more a movie women can immerse themselves into for a few hours. Beautifully done all around.

It was dramatic, at least. . .
I guess I was expecting a lot. When I was younger my mother rented this movie and refused to let me watch. I don't know how old I was, but I remember being mad about it. I did get to see some parts because I would sneak into the room and watch until my mom kicked me out. . . And it looked good. However, I watched the movie and I wasn't impressed. It's not like it was awful, but it was hard for me to keep paying attention. I felt really bored with the story and just wanted the main character, Tita, to run away and find a better life for herself, instead of pining over the man who married her sister. It was just frustrating. I kind of liked the food aspect of the movie, but it wasn't enough to carry the film. It just felt like it went on and on with the same conflict, and it was never ...

It just felt like it went on and on with the same conflict, and it was never really resolved. When the lovers in the movie who are doomed to be apart finally get together, they are yet again torn apart by a tragedy. I was left feeling like I had sat through the whole movie just to be disappointed and a little annoyed by the ending. Don't buy. I know I'll never watch it again. I only paid 2.00 for it, but I feel it was too much!!!

Great movie
. I can relate to the girls mother, I had an adopted mother who was just like her. I saw this movie years ago and cried through out the whole movie. Finally had the courage to see it again and my response was different. I've healed. Thank you
