One of the best movies of 2004 is a little film called "Sideways," which made me smile. I saw "Sideways" the same day thet I saw "National Treasure." and the evidence is clear, "Sideways" is a much better, better written, better directed by Alexander Payne,(who also co-wrote the film) than that half-cook Indiana Jones rip-off. this is the story of two mern who went on a final roadteip before one of then ties the knot.

Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden church give memorable performances that screams Oscar nods. Giamatti came a long way since "Big Fat Liar," and I suspect that he has a bright future. More than two and a half years, my suspicions came true. If he gets an Oscar nod, I'll be there cheering for him along with Church. "Sideways" makes other road trip movies seeem pale by companison.

See it now. This is easily the funniest, laugh-out-loud movie of the year. The interplay between Hayden-Church and Giametti is incredible and legendary. Excellent movie that is even more appreciated if you love wine.

This is a strange movie to recommend. It's starts out so slow and I heard more about wine then I cared to know. But the last third of the movie was so funny, I was laughing out loud. It was like Seinfeld meets an artsy film.

I was happily surprised by this comedy. All along we were told it was a movie about "wine tasting" -- and that put me off a bit. It is about two buddies taking a trip. Forget the wine. Maybe there's something deep in the kinds of wine they drink, but I don't know. I enjoyed the movie for what it is. No deep meanings, please! Just have fun.

It is a shame Paul Giamatti did not get nominated for Best Actor. His character, Miles, was true and consistent and thoroughly enjoyable. I could "feel" Miles in every scene -- Giamatti's performance was ideal.

See this movie this week -- before it gets away!
