Catherine Zeta-Jones stars as Kate, a buttoned-down top chef whose life gets scrambled in “No Reservations.”

“No Reservations” is a remake of the 2002 German film “Mostly Martha.” Unfortunately, the American cast of Zeta-Jones and (Aaron) Eckhart doesn’t create much chemistry.

“No Reservations” sticks a little too closely to the standard recipe for romantic comedies and as such comes out a bit bland. Still, given the talent of (Abigail) Breslin and the sumptuous-looking recipes onscreen, some may find “No Reservations” acceptable comfort food.
