by ajr1713

The Guilt Trip

by Terryb10

I was disappointed in the Guilt Trip. It is suppose to be a comedy and there were very few laughs. I have a neighbor that only wants to go to movies that will make her laugh. She kept saying to me during the movie, "I picked another bummer". The son character was very nerdy which took away from the movie. There were only 2 good scenes in the movie. In the western restaurant and the last scene with the daughter. In the last scene we both looked at each other an went, "Ohhhhh". It could have been a very good movie put it wasn't. Poor writing and direction. Sorry to give a bad review but don't waste your money.

Go See It!

by

People may be hesitant to see this movie because it stars Barbra Streisand, but go see it! It's very funny and delivers on what it says it will give. It's a light hearted comedy about a Jewish mother and son, which should make you laugh just thinking about it. Obviously this movie isn't going to win any oscars or awards, but it's very cute and worth seeing.

GUILT TRIP

by thedoctor777

I was disappointed in this film, it is slow from start to finish. The acting is fine; but nothing great. The storyline is OK yet mundane. There's not much more to say or review. There is no excitement or suspence to remark on. It's simply a slow non eventful film. Sorry I couldn't add to the hype on this film. I would pass on it at the theater and the DVD when released.

guilt trip

by Wldtrky2k

With the characters it was funny, but it wasn't as funny as I thought it would be. The movie got boring in some parts. but the characters in the movie did make it funny in certain scenes. I would not go see it again. and I would tell my friends that they should wait to see it when it comes out on video.

It was an okay movie. It wasn't funny enough to brag about.

All-round good movie

by sagguy

Showing a relationship between mother and son, sweet, touching, funny, sincere. She always wants the best for him, and him for her, but living with some pre-contrived notions about him as well as herself. They both learn and grow from there week journey across the country; just a nice movie as compared with some of the nonsense out there.

Seth Rogen is no Woody Allen...

by President113

but this movie wasn't bad. There were some really funny parts, and Barbara Streisand was perfectly cast as an overbearing Jewish mother. I just wish Seth Rogen was funnier? The movie felt so contrived and predictable, but at least it was sweet and delivered on good natured.

Good laughs

by Ronnailene

While much of the movie was predictable, it was very enjoyable. The two main characters played off each other well & made for a very funny and pleasant movie. With all of the violent movies around of late, it's refreshing to be able to sit back and experience a lighter,comic fare.

Funny at times, very funny

by

The characters personalities and quirks were awesome. I could really identify with them and recognize them as people that I know in my life.

The story was weak.
Semi-predictable.

It's a movie for those who want to chill out and enjoy a good time. Thee is no cinematic or artistic scenes in this movie.

I should have rented it.

Eh?

by lstevens3466

Cute movie but nothing new here. Both Streisand and Rogen play typical roles as over-involved mother and out of touch son. They both have their ah-ha moment and the movie has a sweet ending. I would wait to see this one on your TV :)

THE GUILT TRIP

by shadow 2

I LIKED THE FILM, DIDN'T THINK I WOULD, BUT I DID! MY DARLING WIFE PICKED IT. THE ACTING WAS SUPERB ONE "F" WORD BY BARBARA THAT DIDN'T NEED TO BE IN THE MOVIE, BUT I'M 68 AND IN MY TIME MOVIES NEVER USED THAT WORD, SO BE IT. HEY GODFATHER I THERE WERE HARDLY ANY CURSE WORDS CAPICE?
I RECOMMEND THE MOVIE IF YOU LIKE A GOOD STORY AND AS I MENTIONED VERY GOOD ACTING.

funny ... no, it really was funny.

by NWCL123

Okay, I know that the situations have all been done before, but this was very homey and brought you the humor that doesn't get 13 year old boys or 22 year old boys laughing. But, it made me laugh. It was filmed in the Steve Carroll vein of awkwardness and real life feelings. You cant help but laugh. Seth Rogan isn' "actor of the year" but this helped prove that he has made it.

Go see it and enjoy it. Relax and laugh.

Guilt Trip

by RocknGrandma

The movie had it's moments, but could have been better. It did have humor, but not "gut laughing funny" that we were looking for. We didn't think it was worth the cost of a movie ticket, for the theater, but worthy watching on Nexflix. We liked Parental Guidance far better.....and it was worth seeing on the big screen.

Simple and sweet

by

The Guilt Trip is not a broad over-the-top comedy like the "Fockers" franchise. It's much more simple and sweet - about a Mother and Son who finally come to appreciate their similarities and their differences. Streisand and Rogen have such a natural and fun chemistry together - it was that that really drove this buddy picture. Some of Barbra's best, most natural acting so I do hope people will go see this film in the theatres. She's that good in many of the scenes. Rogen too - very different and honest in this picture. There are many laughs sure but the film felt more like a dramedy to me than a laugh-a-minute holiday romp that was advertised. I've seen it twice and enjoyed it both times.

Cute But a Little Slow

by lambournes

The funny parts on mostly on the trailers. A good Older son -Mother relationship. Both Finding each other. It was just OK for me. I guess the trailers spoiled it a little for me. Expected a little more.
