Movie #767 ........................."Guilt Trip"

Movie #767 "Guilt Trip" was funnier than I thought it was going to be. I suppose if you don't like Seth Rogen or Barbara Streisand, you wouldn't like it at all, because the film is mostly the two of them bantering back and forth. They seemed really natural and much of what they said, I can believe. And when it gets exaggerated, they point that out. Surprisingly, Babs' acting helps them through some possible clunky moments, but then she reminds you that she was "funny girl" or "Yentl" and she can really act when she has to. There's a turning moment in it, too, that I really, really liked and that's an added bonus. Therefore, I can say I recommend this even though the critics seemed rather harsh in their critiques of this comedy. The Guilt Trip 2012 PG-13 96 minutes I'd give this 3.9 stars out of 5. After Andy Brewster invents a fabulous new organic cleaner, he goes on a cross-country road trip to promote it.
