Uncorked

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.

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 tried to watch this movie because I enjoy simple sweet Hallmark movies now and again to relax and get away from the trash on other stations. At first it seemed like a nice story line until I realized something was weird. Someone decided to add background music throughout the entire movie to the point where we were struggling to hear the dialog. It was ridiculous!!!! I was so annoyed, I had knots in my stomach and had to shut it off at the 30 minute mark. I do hope this is not a new policy with Hallmark. If so, I will not be able to watch their movies anymore. It would be very disappointing. DON'T BOTHER WATCHING THIS MOVIE!!!!

I know this movie didn't get great reviews but I liked this enjoyable family film. Maybe more family films out of Hollywood wouldn't be a bad idea! Oh gee no bad language, no sex, or no violence what a novel idea in a movie.
