Read MoreThis is one of my favorite movies of all times. Excellent acting, production, settings and the food just makes you drool throughout the movie. The book was written by Laura Esquivel, who always writes romantic fantasies intertwined with supernatural events and spirituality. This movie is a classic and I recommend everyone to see it.

It deals with magic, so don't get put off if you think something just couldn't happen in real life. That's the point. It's a movie about the power of love and the power of emotions. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
