Uncorked

I'm an old geezer, and I actually enjoyed this film. Agreed, not the best acting, but the story was good. Somewhat sappy in places, also agree, but the thing that I liked the most was the cat and mouse action between Scott and Julie, both knowing the attraction was there, but neither willing to step out to be the first to declare themselves. How many of us have missed opportunities to connect with someone just because we were afraid to be the first to say something?? I did get tired of Elliot Gould in this one, and the sappy Roger that from the boy, but overall, the film had a "home feel" to it. Two people who obviously liked each other, but neither could broached the "being first to say something". I prefer this type of movie over the so-called realism movies of cuss words, vulgarity, vacuous sex scenes, violence, etc. I see enough of this in the news and other media, I would like to enjoy "movies" that have a high road to it.

I enjoyed this movie very much and can relate to it. When I watch a movie, I don't tear it apart. I enjoyed watching a movie for the enjoyment of just watching something entertaining. I like a movie where the father has deep concern for his child (not so in my own life). I also liked the idea of a woman in power telling her boss (Debra) that she quit (would not be stepping on any more "little" people). I had to quit my job because I was under the thumb of such a woman and I had had enough. I liked the idea of a chef and a big time financial adviser making it as a couple. Would love to see it put into DVD form and would also like to see Hallmark do a sequel with the SAME actors. I live not too far from where the movie was filmed and would like to know the filming locations. Some day I might like to take a drive and actually see them. I AM A FAN.

Less silly than the usual Hallmark movie this movie has fairly serious people dealing with real problems. A chef single dad and a workaholic financial woman form a friendship as they help each other. More gradual and eyes open than usual. Like the way she isn't that easygoing with his kid. Saving a winery is the task here.

Julie Benz is slightly above the average TV movie standard so she elevates things. Like Jobeth Williams - she should act more.

There might be a little dust on the bottle, but don't let it fool you about what's inside! Yes, quoted from the lyrics of a song by country artist David Murphy. That's what this sweet romantic drama reminded me of. It was just good, not too special and not too memorable. It was sweet how the little boy wanted to take over the winery when he grew up and how we wanted to learn everything about it. Scott Elrod is a hot actor too with beautiful eyes. It wasn't one of my favorites from Hallmark, but it had its own flare of charm. I thought the hair and make-up in the professional work atmosphere was done very well. Usually those guys and girls don't get a lot of praise for the work they do, so here's to them. Everyone looked very good. I loved the women's hair styles up and down in this one. Nice work! It's worth a viewing. Oh and the beginning of the movie it was celebration a new year, so I thought the viewing of this one would be more appropriate right after the new year or right on New Year's Eve.

This could have been a much better movie if it wasn't for that irritating music that played the whole time. Actors were not too bad and story was good.
