Sideways (R)

Quicklook Rating★★★★

synopsis

A wine tasting road trip to salute Jack's final days as a bachelor careens woefully sideways as he and Miles hit the gas en route to mid-life crises. The comically mismatched pair, who share little more than their history and a heady blend of failed potential and fading youth, soon find themselves drowning in wine and women. Emerging from a haze of pinot noir, wistful yearnings and trepidation about the future, the two inevitably collide with reality.

MovieGoer Review

Writer/director Alexander Payne's fourth effort, Sideways--a film about two friends who go on a wild wine-tasting trip of self discovery together--is definitely his most bittersweet, romantic human tale to date.
