No, it's not funny. Yes, it's pretty predictable and with too many montages. Still, I found it a very enjoyable movie. I think Zeta-Jones acting is good and her character is very relatable. The male lead not so much as he has no flaws, which unfortunately is typical in this kind of movie. Abigail Breslin also does a job in her role as Kate's recently orphaned niece.
Some people complained about the amount and the lengh of scenes in which the characters just taste good-looking food and have a good time while the audience listen to (imo) great music, but I particularly found them charming and a good balance to the heavy atmosphere of Kate's workaholic life and Zoe's loss.
Overall, I really like it!
