Hank Sartin Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Joshua Katzman Chicago Reader This engaging, mostly improvised no-budget feature is based in part on Mandt's experiences, its loose narrative structure developing by chance as the duo encounter an assortment of characters on the road. Sep 19, 2008 Full Review V.A. Musetto New York Post Well shot and edited despite its meager budget, Last Stop for Paul -- said to be based on a true story -- is good-natured, lightweight fun, although clichd and more suited to DVD and cable than the big screen. Rated: 2/4 Aug 8, 2008 Full Review Frank Lovece Film Journal International Terrifically shot, and brimming with equal parts snarky heart and the most well-duh insights since your college senior thesis. Apr 9, 2008 Full Review Chad Greene Boxoffice Magazine Whatever comic misadventures he set out to commit to film on his shoestring budget, [director] Mandt proves again and again in Last Stop for Paul that he was ready when the time came. Mar 10, 2008 Full Review Bob Strauss Los Angeles Daily News Many of these are locals whom we see Mandt trying to teach to act in outtakes over the end credits, which are by far the best and funniest things in the movie. Rated: 2/4 Mar 7, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Lighthearted semi-fictitious travel doco about 2 Americans' cultural adventures adventures travelling through the East. The experience in Tokyo where the one guy's bicycle is stolen and he reports it to the police is particularly funny. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Travelling around the world with these two work buddies is a memorable experience. Poignant and funny at times, it's not quite all-out-awesome, but still manages to hit a mark, especially because of all the crazy people they meet. Really makes me wish I can move forward my travel plans. Don't miss the bloopers at the end. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Cheesy yet inspiring independent film. Look past the basic shooting methods and more into the actual story and you will find two guys telling a travel story that is extremely accurate to the travel lifestyle. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review james b it has a real life vibe, it gave me a weird deja vu like i had seen it before when i seen it on late night rte tv Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I like indie movies, and I like to travel, but ironically this is a travel movie that goes absolutely nowhere. The plot is a meager excuse to weave some semi-entertaining travel yarns together and lacks a conflict, purpose or goal. The generous reviewers giving this one four or five stars must have never seen the Travel Channel, National Geographic, or vacationed outside the Winconsen Dells. Better travel movies to watch instead are The Beach, Around the World in 80 Days, Summer Lovers and National Lampoon's Vacation. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
