A wee romantic charmer, a delectable Dixie screwball romp that never loses its spry sense of discovery.

The movie is an inspired comedy-drama about artistic temperament.
Waitress is strange and sexy and personal and wonderful -- a weird little slice of pure feeling -- and it's horrible that Shelly never got the chance to see it delight a mass audience.
Waitress deserves an essay, not just a review. There are perfect moments that stand out, and the reasons for their perfection are interesting.
Serves up an irresistible helping of delicious fun with writing that is tart and sharp and a story infused with sweetness.
Part feminist fable, part romantic fairy tale, it is by turns tart and sweet, charming and tough, rather like its heroine and like Keri Russell, the plucky, pretty, nimble actress who plays her.
The writer-director Adrienne Shelly, who died in New York City late last year at the age of 40, took such perishable ingredients as wit, daring, poignancy, whimsy and romance, added passionate feelings plus the constant possibility of joy, decorated her one-of-a-kind production with pastel colors and created something close to perfection.
The film is laced with lovely moments, from the leads and from Shelly as a waitress friend.
Sweet and sour and sexy.
An unassuming treat amid the noisy blockbuster season. It’ll melt your heart and any dietary resolve equally.
比盘子还大的派!各种馅儿料的派!各种怪名字的派!得多好吃啊!很喜欢美国这样与世无争的小镇,做个赚工资日结的女招待也不错!像片子里这有情有义的三姐妹,多好!认真努力工作一样会得到老板的馈赠,是一家茶餐厅啊!女主最后甩了其极度厌恶的老公,又将婚外情戛然而止,够帅气!
女人,要坚强
又是平淡的美国独立制作。
看到派,偶不淡定了。
看着想吃的派
你幸福吗?我没有奢求太多,付出太多,得到太多,我总是随遇而安。我说的是实话,从你的女性角度来概括的话,我很幸福。
这才是人生
过一种生活或是做一个派,都是自己选择材料,自己用心搭配。
小成本,大感动
两个要点: 1. 没啥不能没钱 2. 一定要对难伺候的有钱老头格外友好 多一点吧:因为2,这故事对男招待无效。
我蛮想给5星的
在故事开始的时候,完全想不到结局,这才是真正的女人啊。 “亲爱的孩子,我希望有一天,有人能一直抱住你二十分钟,就那样,不推开你,不看着你的脸,也不去亲你,就只是把你紧紧地抱入怀中,不带有任何一点自私。”"
还可以..为啥我觉得女主角特二呢?喜欢这部片的诸位对不起了...
没有新意
SWEET
interesting n bit of surpirse!
最后很温暖!给不想生baby的女人看不错!!
小成本大感动
If only life were as easy as pie.烂番茄07上半年最佳电影Top10!“亲爱的孩子,我希望有一天,有人能一直抱住你二十分钟,就那样,不推开你,不看着你的脸,也不去亲你,就只是把你紧紧地抱入怀中,不带有任何一点自私。”导演表示:我喜欢让迷失的灵魂能够通过我讲述的故事,重新找回生活的道路。
