Amazon.com:
Call it Buffy the Culinary Slayer. Sarah Michelle Gellar, who usually runs around staking vampires and fighting demons, turns cute and cuddly as an aspiring chef in this magical-realist comedy that borrows a page--heck, whole chapters--from Like Water for Chocolate. Out at the market one day, Gellar stumbles on both a magical crab and the babelicious Sean Patrick Flanery who, wouldn't you know it, is opening up a posh restaurant at Bendel's department store (actually, the two have been brought together by fairy godfather Christopher Durang). Odd and implausible circumstances give these two cuties more opportunities to moon at each other, and suddenly Gellar's cooking takes off--turns out all her nicey-nice feelings towards Flanery are going into her cooking, with the help of that quiet but powerful little crab. Gellar's almost-closed restaurant starts to thrive, and her desserts begin making everyone horny. A cute premise that never really takes off, Simply Irresistible glides along on Gellar's charisma alone; in her off hours, Buffy certainly can be the lighthearted girl next door, and Gellar works to give some depth to her one-dimensional character. Flanery, though, while appealing at times, plays up his character's commitment-phobia to irritating degrees. Chock full of fairy-tale elements that never really come together (is that crab really necessary?), Irresistible does boast charming performances by Patricia Clarkson and Dylan Baker as Flanery's secretary and boss, respectively. However, it's a little odd to see these two, who scored raves for two serious and harrowing art-house flicks (Clarkson in High Art, Baker in Happiness) doing the light-and-fluffy romantic comedy thing. They're two of the very few ingredients that occasionally make this soufflé of a movie rise; at the end, however, it's flat as a pancake. --Mark Englehart

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - awesome
I love simply irresistible!!!!!!! I've been looking for the dvd in australia for years, finally found it on amazon! yay



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - buying a dvd from Amazon.com
I am happy to say that my first purchase with Amazon was a DVD. I checked many vendors and Amazon had the best price for the item and it was in stock and they were willing to ship it ASAP. I felt confident enough to trust Amazon because a church friend of mine said that I should give Amazon a try because she knows first hand that Amazon has better saftely features and that they are a great company to buy from. She had had a horror story on E-Bay and it has never been resolved. I got the item ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A GREAT LOVE STORY
I SAW THE MOVIE YEARS AGO ,BUT COULDNT REMEMBER THE NAME. I WAS HOPING IT WOULD COME ON T.V. AND IT DIDNT. SO I CALLED A VIDEO STORE AND ASKED THE PERSON WHO WORKED THERE AND DESCRIBED IT. SHE KNEW RIGHT AWAY AND SUGGESTED TO GO TO AMAZON.COM AND TO ORDER IT. SO I DID AND I WAS SO THRILLED I FOUND IT.."SIMPLY IRRESTIBLE" BRENDA



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is my feel good movie!
You ever have those days where you are just feeling sort of down, for no real reason, and you just don't know why you are in a funk? For days like that I pull out this movie. I don't know why, or how, but it has become one of my favorite movies. It isn't the best movie in the world, but it is very cute and if you are just looking for a cute movie without all of the "R" rating stuff that makes movies hard to watch now-a-days, this is your movie. I would definately suggest this movie.
