So while this intergenerational road trip has potential, it is wasted. A comedy even your mother might not love.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 11, 2022

A pat, old-fashioned comedy that fails to capitalise on the substantial potential for humour of its leading duo.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 9, 2019

Rogen and Streisand share adequate chemistry but seldom seem like the real deal in Anne Fletcher's fourth movie... Under her direction, Streisand and Rogen look like a pair of actors saying jokes written for them by a comedy think tank.

The whole thing gets duller by the minute.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 17, 2018

A mild and forgettable road comedy.

| Original Score: C- | Jun 29, 2018

A bit 'eww' in that it's essentially a romcom with a mom and son, it's the perfect Mother's Day outing for people who don't like their mums much.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 5, 2017

The script has let Streisand and Rogen down.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 23, 2016

The Guilt Trip struck me something best viewed on an airplane.

| May 5, 2016

It just cruises along in second gear, being genial.

Full Review | May 3, 2015

The laughs are gentle, of the chuckle rather than laugh-out-loud variety and they're plentiful enough to overlook the episodic sequences.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 2, 2013

Rogen's deadpan misery meshes well with Streisand's oblivious idiocy, making the laughs roll in.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 30, 2013

Contrived and mostly medicore, but may satisfy Streisand fans

| Mar 28, 2013

It's all kvetch this and kvetch that, with few jokes or amusing encounters ...

| Mar 10, 2013

It never quite delivers juggernaut-sized laughs, but the sharp-tongued sparring between the two leads pops and fizzes throughout, with Streisand in particular showing she's still an intuitive and naturalistic comedian.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 8, 2013

Streisand has lost little of her gawky, pesky touch in comedy, while Rogen knows just how to be the charmingly daft slob.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 8, 2013

Rogen plays the science nerd Andrew, who has just invented an organic cleaning product and is taking a cross-country trip to find a buyer. In a moment of weakness, he invites his meddling mother Joyce (Streisand).

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 8, 2013

Barbra's speed-yapping makes her mollycoddling mum Joyce even more annoying than she is supposed to be.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 7, 2013

What we're left with is a bafflingly dull road movie. Maybe Alexander Payne could have done something with this.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 7, 2013

It is the makers who should feel guilty.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 7, 2013
