Top 10 Movies (Richard Corliss)
Twentieth Century Fox
#9. Waitress
Nothing makes a critic feel worse than the emotional badgering of self-styled "feel-good" comedies. But this one I found pretty darned lovable. Keri Russell is the pregnant piemaker who is abused by her husband and attracted to her McDreamy OB-GYN. Writer-director Adrienne Shelly (who was randomly murdered before the film's release) mixes the comic and social ingredients to make a film that's bumptious, scrumptious fun.
