Synopsis: …a quirky tale of Isabella (Penelope Cruz) a top-notch chef and glowing beauty who suffers from motion sickness. Playing up all of these characteristics, the film explores two of Cruz’s love affairs: one with a restaurant-owner, and the other with the television producer of a cooking program…
Not funny, no Christian values, totally pagan. My Ratings: [2/1.5]
