| HeyUGuysTy CooperThe Trip to Italy is a hilarious romp through the Italian countryside. |
| GrantlandWesley MorrisIt's that melancholy within each man that saves the film from disposability. |
| OregonianMarc MohanSequels are often criticized, and rightfully so, for merely repeating whatever it is that made the first film a success. But "The Trip to Italy" realizes that sometimes there's nothing wrong with serving up a second helping of a satisfying dish. |
| Milwaukee Journal SentinelDuane DudekSome second courses are delicious, others an acquired taste. This pasta-filled follow-up to "The Trip" is a little of both. |
| Kaplan vs. KaplanJeanne KaplanAnother often hilarious buddy/food/road trip through some of the most picturesque vistas Italy has to offer. |
| Consequence of SoundJustin GerberIt's 'second verse, same as the first.' Thank God. |
