    Editorial Reviews

    An airy romance in the tradition of classic Hollywood comedies of the Depression Era, Simply Irresistible (1999) also presses into service the food-obsessed magical realism of Like Water for Chocolate (1992). Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as Amanda Shelton, the chef at Southern Cross, a trendy Tribeca restaurant she inherited from her legendary mother. Not the most inspired of culinary artists, Amanda is running the establishment into the ground, until a cab-driving, Cupid-like guardian angel (playwright Christopher Durang) intervenes with a magical crab that puts Amanda in the path of slick spin master Tom Bartlett (Sean Patrick Flanery). Tom is opening a restaurant for his boss Jonathan Bendel (Dylan Baker), who wants to assure the eatery is no less than a four-star affair, but the temperamental French chef is giving fits to Bartlett and his secretary Lois (Patricia Clarkson). Enter Amanda, who falls head over heels for Tom, love suddenly bestowing upon her the gift of infusing her dishes with powerful amorous emotions that overwhelm diners with a rapturous ecstasy.

    August 02, 2005: I recently saw this movie on television for the first time and I thought it was absolutely adorable. I've already been a huge fan of Sarah on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and this movie made me like her even more. This is just a really feel-good movie and it's very hard not to fall in love with "Simply Irresistible"!!

    March 17, 2003: This movie is a must see for any chick-flick loving person. The sensous story of a young girl overshadowed by her mother's abilitys and about to be forced to close down her restaurant. Then a stroke of luck comes along and she is guided by a man and his awesom magical crab allowing her to cook meals with her emotions. She then falls in love with a rich prominent figure in society and cooks to win his heart. This movie is soo cute and a must see for anyone who adores romantic comedies. And the crab rocks my world
