Tortilla Soup gives a good showcase for a number of stars, some famous, some not, and one star gets a top billing- Hector Elizondo, which is a nice touch. It tells of a father, who is also a chef, and also has three daughters living under his roof, all starting to fall in love (as he may as well). Gives a good number of enjoyable moments and sweet natured performances to pass the time nicely, althought it often also skims a little too much on the comedy/drama line. Racquel Welch also has a small part as a grandmother (though a hot one).
Based on a Ang Lee film from years back. Speaking of Lee, I'd just like to amend what I wrote in my review of Crouching Tiger- he didn't direct Joy Luck Club after all. B
