Editorial Review: Amazon.com: The tantalizing genre of food films--stretching from Babette's Feast to Big Night and beyond--has a delicious new addition, Tortilla Soup. The food-preparation scenes will make your mouth water. Fortunately, the rest of the movie holds up as well. Hector Elizondo plays Martin, a widowed chef who is losing both his sense of taste and control over his three daughters: Leticia (the always superb Elizabeth Peña), a religious schoolteacher; Carmen (Jacqueline Obradors), a successful but unhappy businesswoman still carrying on an affair with her ex-boyfriend; and Maribel (Tamara Mello), a rebellious teen falling in love with a young Brazilian. When a pushy, nosy, but very sexy widow named Hortensia (Raquel Welch) comes along, the troublesome subcurrents in the family start to surface. Elizondo's understated gravitas anchors the story, while the three sisters have sex, eat amazing-looking food, and break plates in the kitchen. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:

Not to mention the characters, the story line, and all the delightful moments you will get to experience. Rating: - Love this!This product is funny! Customer service was also great! Keep up the good work guys! Rating: - Tortilla SoupTortilla Soup My husband introduced me to this story and it's a great movie to cuddle up to with a main squeeze. Great family story with moments of laughter that makes you feel good. Story twists that make you glad your watching it and sad moments that make you say "I experienced that" but doesn't leave you depressed at the end. It's a movie with class. All families have drama and I loved watching it happen to someone else!! Rating: - Tortilla Soup, A Delectable TreatA widowed chef who's lost his sense of taste deals with his three daughters leaving the nest in this warm, charming, often humorous film. Hector Elizondo's performance is masterful, and the cooking scenes are true visual treats. Tortilla Soup is a crossover film that will appeal to people across the spectrum.
