Detailed plot synopsis reviews of Sideways


Two middle-aged guys head off on a road trip through California wine country (Solvang area NOT Sonoma / Napa). One is getting over a traumatic divorce and the other is about to get married. The divorced guy, who is sunk in depression, fancies himself as a wine expert and wants his buddy to take wine tasting seriously, while the about-to-be-married guy fancies himself as a sexual athlete and wants nothing more than for his buddy to get laid. He himself is determined to seduce every woman in sight despite his impending marriage, and has a certain charm which allows the audience to sympathise with him despite his bad behaviour. Along come two attractive women and adventures ensue.

Can the hero get over his divorce and look at women again? Can his buddy decide who - if anyone - he really wants to marry?
