This is apparently the final entry in ‘The Trip’ series and it is a very enjoyable and surprisingly somber ending. Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon’s Odyssey through Greece gives the chance for the audience to sample some stunning views, hilarious interactions, and interesting moments of self reflection.
The premise of two men, playing versions of themselves, travelling skeins places; eating, drinking, and doing impressions, doesn’t necessarily sound thrilling, but when it is Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon, especially when they have the sort of quick witted chemistry that these two do.
Released as a series in the UK but edited together as a film in many other places, this isn’t particularly must-see content, but it’s thoroughly enjoyable light entertainment, and I am sad to see ‘The Trip’ end.
Rating = 3.5/5
