Blood and Wine Audience Reviews

Nonureva Really Surprised!
Micitype Pretty Good
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
MartinHafer Alex (Jack Nicholson) and Suzanne (Judy Davis) have a hellish marriage. She is a drunk and he cheats on her. But Alex also has a side business his wife is unaware of...in addition to being a wine merchant, he's a jewel thief! Along with his friend Victor (Michael Caine), they've stolen some amazingly expensive diamonds. But on the way to the airport to go hock these jewels, Suzanne thinks he's leaving with one of his bimbos....and attacks him. After a vicious fight, she's left him bleeding, 0unconscious and without his bag of diamonds. I 00won't tell you what happens next--you'll have to see for yourself.While "Blood and Wine" is a well made film, some viewers will no doubt have trouble with the movie simply because there is no one to like or care about in the story. They all seem pretty awful and there are a couple horrendous killings in the film...and the ending...wow is that nasty. As for me, I wish in hindsight I'd just watched something else.
evant299 This film was interesting! It is not the best but i feel that it is still worth a watch! The acting was good (especially by Jack Nicholson!) and the cinematography was great! It really captured the beautiful scenery of Miami,Florida! Michael Caine also plays an interesting character! This movie has an A List cast but it seems to be lacking something... Don't get me wrong it was very entertaining but i feel that it was missing something... This is a very underrated film and it should be watched by film buffs and fans of Jack Nicholson and Michael Caine! Also the ending was extremely ironic and surprising! the film had a 1970's film noir kind of feel too. This is one of the better caper films that i have seen and like i said before, in my opinion it is definitely worth a watch!
adi_2002 Alex doesn't understand well with his stepfather son with his wife. He has a mistress who is housekeeping and using a professional thief make a plan to steal from the house where his mistress Gabriela works, a valuable necklace. But things do not go as it should even if it manages to steal the jewel because even before he is ready to leave on a trip in order to sell the necklace has a serious quarrel with his wife leave him unconscious and goes with the suitcase in which he put the necklace.Here begins a cat and mouse game with ugly results.It's a thriller of the 90s with some good actors and should not be missed.
perfectbond I thoroughly enjoyed the twists and turns of Blood & Wine's plot as I steered through it by some very interesting characters who were brought to life magnificently by a talented cast, especially Nicholson and Caine. None of the characters are white as snow but all of them, even the Caine character, elicit some sympathy. My only complaint is that the ending although poetic is slightly unsatisfying. Then again that could be because of my sympathy and bias for Nicholson's character. All in all very enjoyable, 8/10.
