Lots of great reviews here. Many people who have seen Sideways seem to be excited that Giamatti has re-teamed with Payne the director.
Of course, the film is in no way related to the other movie, except that both were involved and that Sideways has quite a cult following.
Unfortunately this is not my type of movie. I'm not saying it's bad. And I'm not saying anything bad about the people who seem to love it. It's just not for me.
It's a character driven movie, which is fine, except I didnt bond with any of the characters. And I found the choice of musical tunes throughout to be annoying at best.
So if you like drawn out period piece character driven flicks, you may like this one. I didn't love it, but I could see how some might, hence the "5" rating.
