Torres' playful and whimsical film is the ideal tonic for the winter blues, bursting with sunshine, fantasy, and mouth-wateringly fiery food.

It's all coy and fey -- and painless to digest.

This has nothing but the lamest romantic notions of kitchen sex.

A charming confection spun from pure whimsy, and bouncy with bright songs and sets.

A succession of Cruz close-ups -- as striking as they may be -- do not a feature make. One also could use a plot, a soupon of conflict and a heroine with more substance than an inflatable doll.

There's a forced sprightliness, here, that reminds me too much of how people get at the end of a party -- you know, when they've stopped having fun but can't quite muster the will to leave or clean up the trash and vomit.

Attains a rarified air of fantasy that may not be wholly uncalculated, but with Cruz at its center is certainly watchable.

This would-be spicy film has been made blandly palatable.
Original Score: 2.5/5

Flavor? Amusingly piquant with traces of honey. Aftertaste? Thin.
Original Score: 2/4

A dish that's pretty easy to swallow, but if it could have borrowed some of Isabella's more potent spices, it might have boasted a more lasting flavor.

Hopefully, somebody soon -- maybe Billy Bob Thornton with the upcoming All the Pretty Horses -- will give this girl a real movie.
January 1, 2000
A romantic fairy tale that's light and in several ways seductive, if not exactly filling. Still, there's always something enticing for the eye.
January 1, 2000
Woman on Top can't overcome a story that's little more than a lumpy, uninspired contrivance.

An actively annoying experience.
