This charming comedy from late director-writer-actress Adrienne Shelly is the perfect mix of sweet and sour. FELICITY'S Keri Russell stars as Jenna, a waitress stuck in a marriage to a less-than-lovable lout (Jeremy Sisto, SIX FEET UNDER). When she learns she's pregnant with his baby, she seeks solace in two things: pie-baking and an extramarital affair with her hunky but nervous Doctor. Jenna's relationship with Dr. Pomatter (Nathan Fillion, SERENITY) gives her something to look forward to as her husband grows ever more controlling and her baby bump gets larger.
Waitress
Adrienne Shelly's fourth film as writer/director is one of those wonderful surprises that the cinema, every so often, hands to you. At first glance you've seen it all before; a woman (Russell) trapped in an unhappy marriage to a man she doesn't even like anymore (Sisto) who falls pregnant and looks for a way to escape the rut her life is in, perhaps through a relationship with the handsome new doctor in town (Fillion). As with so many things though Waitress is all in the execution.
Shelly's script just sparkles. It's loaded end to end with jokes, the great bulk of them laugh out loud funny. What makes Waitress stand out though is that all these jokes feel organic. ...
MMM Falling-In-Love-With-A-Movie Pie...
Slightly girly, warm yet bittersweet, well written, funny, sometimes cringey, curl-up-to-movies not for you? Then leave this one for those, who like me relish its flavours that, like Jenna's Oasis pie, open up one after the other and become even more enjoyable with the next helping.
Watch Waitress once and you will instantly know that writer/director/actress Adrienne Shelly has indeed baked a pie with the heart firmly in the middle. You can pick up on the instant goodies such as 'Uncongratulations'-'Unthank you', the witty dialogue throughout, the wonderful performances and the fact that yes, this is essentially a feel good movie, but it has its darker turns.

WOW! one of my fav movies now. loved the storyline, didnt like much the ending though but takin everythin into account..i give it a 5/5 rating. gonna watch this all over again. haha
Very odd movie with odd characters, with a feel like Napolean Dynamite. Didn't see any of the comedic moments. Andy Griffith was a nice addition to the cast. Rate: 8.5/10
An amazing story about life and love. It was truly amazing how the unfolding of events really turned around her outlook on life, for example.. [SPOILER]
I loved that even though she didn't end up with the doctor, he taught her how a real man should treat someone he loves. Also loved that the birth of her baby allowed her to stand up to Earl and show him that the only thing that mattered in her life was the baby.
I would watch it again and again. 10/10 stars especially for the acting.. there was a good amount of comic relief in it too to ease some of the more dramatic parts.
a good one for watching with the girls!
keri russell plays a waitress who loves making pies and doesn't love her husband especially since he got her drunk and knocked her up.
this movie is just so sweet, humorous and kinda romantic
