Now knitted into a feature-length movie, the relationship between [Rob] Brydon and [Steve] Coogan-mostly just bickering-reveals itself with an easy, deft grace. Full Review

[A] British road movie laced with lacerating laughs....Mr. Coogan has made a career partly by riffing on narcissism and he's in fine self-loving form, as is Mr. Brydon.

Rating: 3/4 -- The Trip is not about food; it's about friendship, one that will give you plenty to laugh - and think - about. Full Review

Told through the comedic eyes of Coogan and Brydon, The Trip is deliciously illuminating...and funny. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Fuelled by some inspired and very funny improvisations - their duelling Michael Caine impersonations are a scream - the film gradually settles into a meditation on mid-life malaise. Full Review

4 stars out of 5 -- [A] comic road trip through northern England....The longtime friends and collaborators play fictional versions of themselves in a mostly improvised and revealing portrait of middle-age angst.

Rating: B+ -- The Trip is a comedy about two guys going to fancy restaurants in the English countryside. Sounds hilarious, huh? Well, it actually is. Full Review

Product Description:

Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon reprise their roles from Michael Winterbottom's TRISTRAM SHANDY: A COCK AND BULL STORY for this tale of a restaurant critic who reluctantly invites his obnoxious best friend on a business trip through the English countryside. Tapped by The Observer to review fine restaurants throughout the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales, Steve (Coogan) finds himself without a traveling companion after his girlfriend decides not to go at the last minute. After being turned down by everyone he knows, Steve extends an invitation to Rob (Brydon), and together the pair attempts to navigate the winding back roads of rural England, impersonating popular celebrities and bickering endlessly along the way.
