Review of Bottle Shock (2008) by Julia C — 12 Aug 2009
I've slowly come to the conclusion that Alan Rickman is always the best part of any movie he is in.
A fictionalized retelling of the France vs. California blind wine tasting event of 1976. The best wines, we are told, are come from grapes that struggle - and so it is with the winemakers in Bottle Shock. We know from the start how the movie will end, and yet the final test tasting still manages to be suspenseful. Recommended.
