Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
John Huddles tries hard to charm audiences with his modest little American indie comedy about a kooky British clan on a sprawling northern California estate. Rufus Sewell is the would-be family entrepreneur on a financial losing streak ready to sink the last of his fortune on a failed manganese mine. His girlfriend (Minnie Driver) can't talk him out of the doomed venture and his brother is busy getting back to nature, so eccentric uncle Nigel Hawthorne climbs down from his spiritual cloud to knock some sense into his nephew: "His karma was constipated. I gave him an enema." Executive producers Driver and Hawthorne were surely drawn to the sweetly offbeat characters and hopeful message of healing in the script, but Huddles's stylistic gymnastics distract from the comedy's gentle pace and simple tone, and even these engaging performers can't buoy the film through the phony contrivances of the feel-good finale. The film has previously been released under the names At Sachem Farm and Higher Love. --Sean Axmaker

This movie does have a refreshing philosophical perspective, but it's not executed well. A lot of the dialogue is plodding or obvious. The characters have no chemistry, relationship twists seem surreal, and the waste and extravagance is enormous for so called "enlightened" souls.
The movie is too long and repetitive and ultimately predictable.

I liked this movie, because it seemed like there was subtle and wistful moral to the story. A lesson in how to get over yourself, how to face fear of failure, and if those fears come true, how to pick yourself up and move forward.
Ross, the lead in the movie, is extroverted, always talking, always busy, and he's taken the fate of his family and the world on his shoulders, whether they want him to, or like or not. However his family doesn't need saving, and they continue onward in their ... Read More

Sewell is just splendid in this film. I doubt many people have seen it, but it's well worth the watch. Rufus's character is obsessed with finding where he fits in today's world, yet his uncle knows. It may seem a bit much at first with the uncle pouring out all of his only known inheritance(the wine), but there is a point to it all. Take my word on this; it teaches a person not to judge and to utilize his/her talents instead of "sqirming" away the hours of one's life.

Despite the fact that I am a HUGE Rufus Sewell fan - this film was atrocious. The plot revolves around an oddball family of slackers who never held "real jobs". Nephew Ross constantly complians that his old uncle Cullen was a spoiled trust fund kid who lived off family money. But Nephew Ross also never was able to hold a "real job" and repeatedly loss huge sums of money in hare-brained investments. So what is the point?
The film is racist against Asians. There are approximately 15 Asian actors ... Read More
