As the guys continue on their way to Texas, this Road Trip degenerates into a slow-moving game of connect-the-gross-outs.

Mark Caro, Chicago Tribune
Rotten

Although lively at times, the proceedings are far too perfunctory to generate a 'can-you-top-this' quality. The result is a film that knows some of the words, but not the music.

Multiplexes should be thronged with howling, high-fiving young men deep into summer.

Road Trip is nothing more than a series of sight gags and put-downs. It's often funny, but it never has anything smart to say.

Bob Longino, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The movie is sloppily made, but there's almost a sly charm to the sloppiness, and the unevenness of the filmmaking doesn't detract from the picture's most obvious laughs.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews
