Review of Somm (2013) by Kevin L — 20 Aug 2013

I actually quite enjoyed this inside look into the very intense world of how to become a Master of Wine. It's a very odd universe that is populated by an array of characters who have either made it or are busting their ass to make.

The intensity of the exam is conveyed well and the characters range from likeable to to neutral - there are no real bad guys in this film. The fact that they all help and want each other to pass is quite endearing in what would otherwise be a very cutthroat environment.
