I wanted to love this movie, but, like many other commenters, the Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci segments were wonderful, while the Amy Adams/Chris Messina were over-acted, too precious, irritating, and the worst part - he ate like a PIG, always chewing with his mouth open, talking with his mouth full. In fact, all those Queens people talked with their mouths full. No manners, no class. Made me want to just stop watching. In fact, I skipped past middle half of the movie, I found the "Julie" parts so irritating.

That said, Meryl Streep was incredible and worth the movie just for her (and her husband who was really cool, too).

I respect Julie's project to cook all of Juilia's recipes in one year. That's awesome, but this movie misses the mark. I haven't read the book, apparently, it suffers from them imbalance.

I see the usual suspects are downvoting this comedy special. Katt Williams is a national treasure. He saw Trump for what he was and is. But politics are just a small part of the routine. His bit on aggressive fast food menu development and marketing is wonderful. He is an astute observer of culture, commerce, and where we are as a nation. The wonderful thing about Katt Williams is the undercurrent of love he has for his fellow Americans of all colors. But most of all, he is charming and as funny as can be.
