This hedonistic japery is shot through with middle-aged melancholy and the fear of death.

David Denby, New Yorker

If it's your cup of tea, you're likely to spill it from laughing so hard. Somebody send these two on another holiday.

Tom Long, Detroit News

It's that melancholy within each man that saves the film from disposability.

Wesley Morris, Grantland

The Trip to Italy doesn't feel entirely new, but there's comfort in familiarity, too.

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

Where comedy provides the tonic in so many films, it's the hint of reality that pushes in at the edges and changes the pace here. These guys are funny. But they know their longer trip will continue once the last plate of pasta is empty.

Chris Vognar, Dallas Morning News
