Movie Review: Sideways

Anna and I rented "Sideways" last night. I thought it was a pretty good movie with some flaws. First, Anna fell asleep about 10 minutes into the movie. Second, the movie does move at a rather slow pace. It's about two guys and their week long trip to California's "Wine Country". One character, Miles, is divorced (2 years) and has a multitude of what I like to call, "life-management" problems. From stealing money from his mom, to anxiety, to still being in love with his ex-wife. The second character, Jack, is set to be married at the end of the week. Jack is having "commitment issues" and sets his number one priority for the week: To "get some". There are definitely some funny parts in the movie and some sad parts. What I didn't like about the movie? The ending was horrible. It was the second horrible ending I have seen in a movie this week ("The Final Cut" starring Robin Williams was the other).
