Title: God, this is terrible
Review: Uncertain (but showy nevertheless) direction, half-baked script, characters that generate zero warmth and an unbelievable narrative await you with this rancid DVD. After 10 minutes, I said to my wife, "We have a directing problem here." She said, "No, we have an everything problem."Randall Miller may be the most inept director I've seen in some time. He has absolutely no idea what to do with the camera and an editing sytle that borders on psychotic. Chris Pine evokes absolute revulsion in his characterization of Bo. (Did he really show up at the Paris contest in the same t-shirt he wore in Napa? Help me.)The character Sam decides to sleep with Gustavo and then Bo for what reason again? Huh? The Napa growers decide to send layabout Bo the bum to Paris to represent them. What? Bo and his father have repeated violent boxing matches for exactly what reason?Enough.
