After so many around me said: "Ooooh, you have to see the movie, its brilliant." I finally did two days ago. And the movie can only be described as the story of a gigantic first world problem, that most western white woman have today. They have everything they thought (and were tought) they always wanted, just to realise that its not (or not enough). The house, the pool, the money, the husband (the kids). And what happens next? Of course, I need to find myself, go travel and find a way to live a happiert life through meditation, eating and absolute nonsense conversations. The ideaology is, the only thing that matters is once own happiness, everything else can be discarded and responsibilities mean nothing. At the end, that is what the movie will transport as a message to most, because it is to shallow and jumpy. It basically plants the idea into young women, that they need to leave everything behind to be happy, as soon as something is wrong. The only positive thing about the movie ist the cast, camera and scenery.

The three faces of happyness!

If you want to eat tripe, this is it. A passably good movie will let you suspend belief at least a little. None here. It belittles places and peoples. The leads are all white or European despite the settings being mostly not. The characters are shallow and self absorbed - wealthy enough to travel a lot but to never worry about it at all in grindingly impoverished places. The premise was that Liz (the lead) lost it all, but still could afford..... I only kept watching because I thought there must be something here or it would never have made it to theaters. My mistake.

Spoiled histrionic makes her inability to appreciate her shallow life everybody else's problem, and is ultimately rewarded with an unrealistic fairytale ending.

It's a good movie. I liked it because it is thought provoking, and moving. I recommend seeing it.

Like Liz, this movie was lost. She didn’t know what to do with her life, why she was on the trip and what she learned about herself, and neither do I. (38%)

The prequel to Live Laugh Love. Despite having a surprisingly stacked cast and the budget to film on location across the world, it only results in a bland vanilla self-discovery film. Julia Roberts as Liz Gilbert is a white savior first-ballot Hall of Famer, going 3/3 when it comes to “enlightening” or “enriching” the people in the countries she travels to. Ryan Murphy should stick to working his voodoo on 온라인카지노추천 shows as this film’s structure and pacing is a hot mess, that ironically would’ve probably worked better as a television miniseries. Too much material from the original memoir was attempted to be crammed into a film, resulting in it feeling rushed and not allowing the viewer enough time to grow attached to any of the supporting characters.

This movie; key word "attempts", to create meaning, but is really let down by messy direction and lousy screenwriting. Such a talented lead, Julia Roberts, wasted by the missed potential and the boring, long beginning that just felt like an eternity. I must say though, the cultural aspects of this movie were impressive and fun to watch, everything else is forgettable and quite frankly you can miss this Julia Roberts' movie out...

An excellent movie that moves you, sheds light, relatable, thought provoking ... including the parts we might not wish for. Julia does an amazing portrayal of the main character.

my forever go to in tough times.

Mrs. Roberts does his absolute best to carry this movie, she does so in convincing fashion which we have all come to expect every time she acts. The movie doesn't care the same tones as the book, but for a book adaptation this is one of the better ones.

I'm a sucker. I love this movie.

Everyone's went off about this movie but it was pretty basic. But entertaining enough. It was a one time movie for me.

I usually like Julia Roberts movies, so I was looking forward to this one. Every scene in this movie looks like a work of art, carefully composed to look visually stunning. However, the story is dull, slow and full of personal reflection about the breakdown of a marriage. Julia's natural charisma never get's the chance to surface, because the script is constraining her. It's like watching a foreign news documentary you don't care about at times, and frankly it's depressing. I can not recommend this at all.

It was an elaborate tourism ad, devoid of any other purpose or meaning.

Sappy, insulting, basic. In other words, the predictably typical, boring schlock that one has come to expect from the ever mediocre Julia Roberts.

Gostei bastante. Após ler o livro que ganhei de minha antiga e querida amiga de infância, achei que veria pouquíssima qualidade no filme. Porém, apesar de ver as nítidas diferentes evidências entre livro X filme, o filme Comer, Rezar e Amar me agradou bastante. Ficou bem suave e de uma maneira que agrada ao espectador. (eu havia inclusive feito sozinha uma viagem para 3 lugares europeus após ler o livros, e renomeado o comer, rezar e amar de acordo com cada um dos países onde estive, pois fazia todo o sentido) Enfim - é um ótimo filme. Recomendo.

C+ It was ok. a tad long but it was ok.

Phony. This is a fantasy film - learn perfect Italian in 3 weeks, reach Nirvana in 2 weeks, find love in one week. It's foundation is the scenic beauties of India, Italy and Bali. It lacks substance and real characters. Rubbish

So bad, cringey and shallow. Not even the beautiful Italian scenery can save it.
