Full Plot Details

In a German restaurant, Chef Martha Klein is the undisputed supreme ruler of the kitchen staff, and woe to any customer who would dare criticize her cooking. Her life is firmly centered around cooking, which takes on a obsessive level with stubborn single-mindedness. Even when she is ordered to take therapy, she still constantly talks about her work and the ironclad control she relishes. All that changes when her sister dies in a car accident, leaving her 8-year-old daughter Lina. Martha takes her niece in and while making inquiries about her estranged father, she struggles to care for this stubbornly headstrong child. Meanwhile, a new chef named Mario is hired on at Martha's restaurant and she feels threatened by this unorthodox intruder. The pressures of her work and private life combine to create a situation that will fundamentally call her attitudes and life choices into question while these interlopers into her life begin to profoundly change it.

Movie Reviews

Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenPuts to rest any thought that the German film industry cannot make a delightful comedy centering on food.
AboutFilm.com - 9/10 by Carlo CavagnaThough the plot is predictable, the movie never feels formulaic, because the attention is on the nuances of the emotional development of the delicate characters.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 9/10 by Steven ReaAdd Mostly Martha to the list of great mouth-watering food flicks - "Eat Drink Man Woman," "Big Night," "Babette's Feast" -- but don't stop there. Add it to another list: movies that get at the heart of what family, and love, is all about.
Seattle Times - 9/10 by Moira MacDonaldNettelbeck throws together a child who isn't cute and a woman who isn't lovable, and the result is one of the year's more heartwarming movies.
ReelViews - 9/10 by James BerardinelliAs much as any other motion picture that employs the preparation and consumption of food as a key element, Mostly Martha provides the perfect blend of cinematic nourishment and gratification.
Countingdown.com - 9/10 by Larry CarrollA delightful little film that revels in its own simplicity, Mostly Martha will leave you with a smile on your face and a grumble in your stomach.
Rolling Stone - 9/10 by Peter TraversNettelbeck serves the tastiest film about food and sex since Big Night.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzThis mostly food-as-metaphor-for-life story, never got past the kitchen and never got past thinking how clever its metaphors were.
Variety - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyThough utterly predictable, this kitchen-set romantic comedy about a severe German woman and a fun-loving Italian cook, has a certain charm, and it's about food, which speaks well for commercial appeal.
Salt Lake Tribune - 9/10 by Sean P. MeansMostly Martha glides so effortlessly from comedy to drama that you may be surprised how often you are laughing and crying at the same time.
