Leave your thoughts about The Long Dumb Road.
| Austin ChronicleDanielle WhiteWhen it comes to buddy comedies, The Long Dumb Road isn’t exactly forging new territory. It’s a bit like "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" refitted for the 21st century, yet it’s grounded in a nostalgic sense of kismet that predates using an app to order rides from strangers. |
| Hollywood NewsJoey MagidsonThe Long Dumb Road is one of the year's better comedies, with Mantzoukas an absolute showstopper. |
| Hammer to NailJessica Baxter[Jason] Mantzoukas plays to his strengths as a wild card who is as endearing as he is unhinged. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoWhen a movie is forcing you to question what you liked its stars in before, you know it's gone way off the beaten path. |
| TheWrapElizabeth WeitzmanWhile the lessons are light and the road well-worn, our perfectly mismatched travelers make the journey worthwhile. |
| RogerEbert.comSheila O'MalleyFidell trusts the dynamic between her two main actors, and allows them a lot of leeway. The conversations have a fresh and improvisational quality. Best of all, she leaves space for the unexpected and the random. |
| CinemalogueTodd Jorgenson... charts a well-traveled path of road-trip and buddy-comedy clichés. |
| New York Magazine (Vulture)Bilge EbiriThe film never stops loving these characters. Mantzoukas brilliantly juggles all the different forces of Richard’s personality so that we never quite know what to make of this guy, which in turn means that we never quite know what will happen next with him and Nat. |
| Moveable FestStephen SaitoNot only does a compatible odd couple form between Nathan and Richard, but Fidell and Mell create characters made interesting by their inherent contradictions. |
| VarietyAmy NicholsonInstead of slapstick laughs, The Long Dumb Road pays attention to how these two opposites connect. |
