Been a long time since I had watched it.

Fantastic movie.

Church and Giamatti kill it.

Sorry man but I completely disagree. It was probably the most boring movie I have ever seen.

The realism of the movie is superb, acting was also excellent. Other than that, it was good not great.

Running home naked because you got busted by your pick-up's boyfriend. Having to return to the scene of the crime to steal your wallet back.

Good times.

Brings back memories.

This movie is kind of a litmus test for me. If you don't howl from laughter at least 3 times during this movie, then we cannot be friends.

Very funny. And also poignant.

Yes, sir. The part where he steals money from his mom always hits me somehow.

Alexander Payne is great at making movies like this. His movies (like SW, About Schmidt, Nebraska) seem to be more human and thoughtful than others. I don't find his movies to be boring at all.

Payne is one of my top 5 favorite directors

Sideways, The Descendants, and About Schmidt are phenomenal films

I liked Nebraska ok, but it's still decent


I think I've seen Sideways at least a dozen times

It seems like people really love or hate this movie. I found its humor boring and smug for obvious reasons.

They talk about wine.

And the lead character is an author.

Not one fart joke.

I didn't like it when I saw it. But that was years ago, might have to see it again now that I'm older.

I absolutely die laughing when Giamatti walks in on Church just pile driving Sandra Oh in the hotel. He was straight merciless on it.

Honestly, I went in expecting to not like it, but I came out of the other side a fan.
