About this movie

CAKE takes us into the darkly funny world of Claire Bennett (Jennifer Aniston) who initiates a dubious relationship with a widower (Sam Worthington) while confronting fantastical hallucinations of his dead wife (Anna Kendrick). With her feisty housekeeper cum caretaker (Adriana Barraza) ever at her side, Claire searches for human connection and self-forgiveness in this tale of personal redemption.

Ratings and reviews

I think in the hands of a more capable actress a better director and a better screen play this movie could have really been an awards contender.As it stands its a good movie not a great movie. Jennifer Aniston's performance is adequate but unlike most people I think it shows her limitations. There were definite plot holes here that were never explained?

This movie is well written and proves that Jennifer Aniston can take on a dramatic role with ease. Perfect role for her. It displays her acting skills and her plethora of emotions. She dug deep into this role and is evident that she understood her character well. This is one of her best, if not the best role she has ever played. Kudos to you Ms. Aniston. Brava!

I think this movie could have been a whole lot better if it not only showing the life but also explain what rsd/crps really is. A lot of people won't like this movie because they were not understand the illness of RSD CRPS. A love has rsd/crps and its not a joke,
