Jordan Mintzer Hollywood Reporter A rocky if endearing trek through contemporary Europe. Jul 30, 2019 Full Review Dwight Brown National Newspaper Publishers Association Actor turned director and writer Sebastian Schipper examines immigration with this vibrant road movie. Rated: 2.5/4 May 6, 2019 Full Review Vladan Petkovic Cineuropa By playing it by the book and ticking the right topical boxes in a conventionally structured story, Schipper misses the mark completely. Dec 9, 2020 Full Review Marshall Shaffer Crooked Marquee Ham-fisted though the transition from buddy comedy to refugee exposé might be, Roads makes for a moving tribute to the power of brothers, be they lost, found, or created. May 8, 2019 Full Review Joey Magidson AwardsCircuit.com An indie dramedy caught between humor and seriousness, there's a sense of this only being a rough draft of a fuller, better final product. Rated: 2.5/4 May 1, 2019 Full Review Sarah Ward Screen International Roads is always on the move, be it by camper van, ferry, electronic bike or motorcycle, but it's the yearning of its two protagonists that gives the movie its restlessness.

Stan E Best film of the year. It has action. A great story. Acting top-notch from the two leads. I could feel the bond form and strengthen throughout the film. Loved it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/09/20 Full Review Read all reviews
