I saw this movie at a screening at the Fox lot and couldn't believe how charming it was. Keri Russell's performance is outstanding, as are the supporting performances by... Full Review

was "dragged" to "Waitress" by my wife expecting 90-120 minutes of torture by schmaltz. Also thought that critics were being overly kind because of the movie's tragic ci... Full Review

The performance delivered by Keri Russell in Adrienne Shelly's "Waitress" saves this movie from feeling like a 2-hour sitcom. For those who don't know already writer/dir... Full Review
