- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Irritating in its failures and clumsy in its successes."
-
"A winning cast and a magnum's worth of subplots make Bottle Shock extremely watchable, perhaps a bit fruity, with grace notes of leather, oak and no ham."
-
"More enthusiastic than genuinely entertaining."
-
"The film is based on fact, but its texture is such that even the true bits feel trumped-up, and the fictional components add only the phoniest sort of conflict."
-
"Whatta movie: booze, unhappy French people, Alan Rickman and really cool pickup trucks."
-
"It's the kind of feel-good movie whose resolution is evident from the start, being based as it is on a true story. But that doesn't make the journey any less interesting."
-
"The soul of the grape, that thing that elevates a wine to greatness, proves here as elusive on screen as in the bottle."
