An odd couple take to the open road. Having followed his girlfriend out to California's Wine Country for the summer, Yale law student Sherman finds himself dumped, and cut off from his high-society mother's money. A stranger stranded in a strange land, he hitches a ride with Palmer, a washed-up, unapologetically eccentric Olympic athlete. There are detours along the way, including the possibility of an enlightening girlfriend, an encounter with a gun-wielding gourmet chef and a chance for the former athlete to be on top again. A comedy about absent fathers and damaged sons striving to find balance between responsibility and recklessness.
Leave your thoughts about Sherman's Way.
| New York ObserverAndrew SarrisSherman's Way manages to be a road movie that never gets very far because it keeps going around in circles. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA delightful comedy about the sentimental education of an uptight and inexperienced young man who happens to be insanely rich. |
| Film Journal InternationalLewis BealeCute fish-out-of-water comedy is a lightweight but inoffensive time-waster. |
| Boxoffice MagazineJohn P. McCarthyUpon learning he can't swim or drive, we know a skinny-dipping scene and driving lessons loom around the bend. So what? LeGros is still funny and the montages and gentle sitcom wit go down more easily in wine country. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleIt's lost-in-life meets lust-for-life in the reliably regenerative wine country, which means most moviegoers could hand this emotionally stranded odd couple a road map of where they'll be by the closing credits. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferBreezy, harmless and mildly engaging, but ultimately insipid and forgettable. |
| Slant MagazineEric HendersonNot since Larry David's Sour Grapes has a movie kicked off by so thoroughly painting its protagonists as deeply unlikable souls. |
| New York PostLou LumenickComing-of-age road trips have rarely been more tedious or predictable. |
| SSG SyndicateSusan GrangerWhimsically entertaining but all too familiar and formulaic. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanUnfortunately, this strained comedy relies entirely on clichés and contrivances to tell the story of Sherman. |
