"...Meryl Streep does the real cooking in Julie and Julia. She effortlessly masters Child's heart and soul.

Streep handles the painful echoes of Child's ironically childless life with poignancy that avoids the maudlin with one exception. The last scene has her and her mate Paul (Stanley Tucci) beaming at and holding that beautiful little book of theirs with a little too much motherly and paternal affection...." (Allmovie.com)
