Cheap bottle of plonk


The Chateau Meroux (2011)

Directed by Bob Fugger this film stars Marla Sokoloff, some other people you have never heard of and Christopher Lloyd. A woman from the city inherits a struggling vineyard from her estranged father and a romantic comedy ensues.

There is nothing remotely interesting or original about this film and it is pretty much the definition of by the numbers. Christopher Lloyd has put in some genius comedic performances over his career but has absolutely nothing to work with here which is a real shame as that was about the only thing that could have saved this film. If you want to watch a film about wine making or a romantic comedy there are far better efforts out there.

2/5
