The Trip is a comedy about two guys going to fancy restaurants in the English countryside. Sounds hilarious, huh? Well, it actually is.
Tom Long, Detroit News

Much more than an appetizer, if not quite a main course, it definitely goes down a treat.
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail

The pinch of pathos in this tart comedy makes the "The Trip" a transportive experience.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Think The Odd Couple with sartorial style and more bickering. Add hints of truisms about middle age, sex, family, mortality and the limits of friendship and The Trip reveals itself to be more than it initially appears.
