Not a comedy Jack is about to be married, but decides to go on one last fling and essentially drags Miles along. It's not that Miles dislikes the destination - wine country - when in fact Miles is a wine connoseur and frequents the wine country. Jack is using Miles and the trip as a cover for Jack's ultimate goal - to have a last fling before marriage. This is friendship and humor? Miles was used by Jack over and over again. At their destination, Jack quickly hooks up with Stephanie and leaves Miles on his own. Miles is depressed and can't move past the thought that his wife divorced him and remarried. Jack doesn't want Stephanie to know that he is about to be married and Jack agrees not to say anything. Miles retrieves Jack's wallet after he left it at the home of another woman he bedded. And, Miles covers for Jack and crashes his own car in order to develop a believable alibi for Jack's broken nose. Although this may be reality for some men, the movie was filled with pathos. Another reviewer likened the movie, I believe, to works by Camus. Having recently reread "No Exit", I have to agree. I hadn't thought of it at the time, but the 'humor' is in the pathos and misery of the lives of the characters and was not comedy in the traditional sense. Had the movie been classified differently, and not as a comedy, my rating may have been higher. The discussion of wines and wine tasting was somewhat educational. However, I began to wish that the movie was being shown in a winery so I could enjoy drinking wine along with the characters.
