The Trip is a witty journey through the English countryside. Reprising their fictionalized roles from 2005’s Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story, Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon reunite with director Michael Winterbottom for a hilarious road movie which follows the two comedians as they eat, riff, jab and dissect adulthood, fatherhood, relationships, their careers and Michael Caine.
Coogan and Brydon make a brilliant comic duo, but the film is more than just jokes. Winterbottom grounds his comedy in the importance of friendship and family, as both men come to realize that loved ones are more important than any amount of fame.
Director: Michael Winterbottom | Cast: Steve Coogan, Rob Brydon and Claire Keelan | Year: 2011 | Country: United Kingdom | Language: English | Run Time: 111 minutes
