Blurb Movie Reviews - 'Sideways'



What a piece of shite. I don't see what all the fuss was about. Paul Giamatti certainly did not warrant an Oscar for this role. He basically played himself. Blegh. I wanted to turn it off like three times, but I kept watching hoping it would redeem itself. It didn't.

It's both pretentious and juvenile, and the two lead characters [Hayden Church and Giamatti] aren't likable. I wanted 'Miles' [Giamatti] to commit sucide just so we wouldn't have to suffer through anymore of his whining and wine talk. Looks like I am not the only one who thinks this way.

It was alright...but it did have two genuinely funny parts. That part in the restaurant where Hayden Church is smiling as the girls go to the ladies room, then he turns to Giamatti with a straight face and goes, "What the fuck?" I was rolling.

The other was when he showed up at his hotel door completely naked. That part was funny.

Yah, the naked thing was funny. And when Sandra Oh kicked his ass with her bag.
