The
first movie titled, The Trip, was an improvised restaurant review tour of
Northern Britain. Following the success of the first film, this tour is of the
restaurants of Italy. Like the other film, there is a
lot of banter back and forth since this trip is a retracing of a grand tour by
Romantic poets. Many scenes are
included of the idyllic Italian landscape.
The
food looks wonderful and you want to have tastes for yourself!! The vocal impersonations of both Coogan
and Brydon get a little tiresome at times and they did in the first film as
well. I would liked more descriptions
of the types and flavors of the food and wines. 2 ½* (This movie is so-so)
108
min, Comedy directed by Michael Winterbottom with Steve Coogan, Rob Brydon,
Rosie Fellner, Claire Keelan, Marta Barrio, Timothy Leach, Ronni Ancona,
Rebecca Johnson, Alba Foncuberta Bufill, Flora Villani.
