Obviously a movie that revolves around a wine tasting in France can't appeal to everyone. Even die-hard Alan Rickman fans seem to have avoided this one like a movie from the Friedberg and Seltzer team. But, if you really can stand a plot that moves at a snail's pace (and are willing to stick around for Alan Rickman's dead-on sarcasm), then I think you'd be able to stomach this movie. By no strecth of the imagination should this movie persuade you to like the French. Quite the opposite really. You'll probably think of them as haughtier and more snobbish than ever. But they are French, so give them a break. There are a few familiar faces to be seen, but few and far between. For the general public, I don't reccomend this movie. It can't keep your attention unless you're already engaged in the plot.

Those of you who can stomach the all the wine country lingo and subtle 1970s references, answer me this; why do you think movies that seem to be on a higher intelluctual plane do so much more poorer than others that appeal to baser needs? There are very few movies that centralize themselves on one particular, relatively unknown events in history. A wine tasting that the American's whooped some French ass in? Yeah, not too much note of that in the film archives. But how many movies can you name about sports teams and TV shows? I can come up with 'The Replacements', 'The Simpsons Movie', and 'A League of Their Own' just off the top of my head. Can you name any others?

New in Town

Genre: Comedy, Romance

Director: Jonas Elmer

Screenwriters: Ken Rance (Wednesday Afternoon) and C. Jay Cox (Sweet Home Alabama)

Starring: Renée Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr.

Two reasons not to see this movie-

First off this movie is meant to be a comedy/romance, but there is very little comedy in it. Most of the funny scenes are in the commercials. Second is that the plot and inciting incident aren't very original. It's a "cute" movie, but not much more than that.

Two questions:

1- What type of things do you look for when you go to see a romantic comedy?

2- What other movies have you seen that Renée Zellweger stars in?
