**_A sumptuous wedding, a shocking death, a menacing fire makes for the perfect murder mystery reads the movies tagline…._**
Admittedly the Temecula Wine Country setting is visually stunning.
However, I just finished watching this with my wife and we both had similar reactions. My first thought was that the movie was a PARODY of this genre. Frankly I was stunned to discover that it was not.
Typically the theme and scene are set very early with the introductions of the individual characters. This film opens with people arriving at a Vineyard, little or no introduction as to who the characters are or what their relationships are to the Bride and Groom or even the storyline. At one point we were 15 minutes in to the film without knowing which of the female characters was the Bride (spoiler alert none of them were)
“Just like the grains of sand thru an hourglass” the acting is torturously reminiscent of the worst of the worst daytime Soap Operas.
In the end you are left wondering…”What did I just watch” when the real question is “Why did I watch it”
