Despite some nice performances ... it never gets out of the predictable low gear.

It's a profoundly rich and beautiful picture, in its unassuming way close to a masterpiece.

New York Post

Director-writer Pablo Tapero keeps the proceedings low-key and realistic. He doesn't hit you over the head with his ideas, yet he manages to say a lot about human nature.

Rated: 3/4

James Plath

Movie Metropolis

Proves that Americans don't hold the patent on familial dysfunction, but it's also a sincere personal essay about writer-director Trapero's Argentinean family.

Rated: 7/10

Marta Barber

Miami Herald

The cast doesn't look like a troupe of actors; it could easily be taken for an ordinary family with plenty of physical and psychological bumps and bruises, but always loving.

Rated: 3/4

This is all about boredom, anger and sex, and what we get most is the first on the list.

good hearted road movie, not the best Argentine road movie I've seen recently, but enjoyable. The grandmother is charismatic, and her two daughters are troupers. The gordo driving the camper is long-suffering. The romantic triangles are a bit predictable, but the scenery and the car breakdowns are entertaining.

Muy buena historia, la viejita se gana la pelÃcula. Cada personaje estÃ¡ profundamente analizado y caracterizado, muy bien dirigido y muy bien llevada, buenos tiempos y un final interesante. La recomiendo para personas que esten abiertas a pelÃculas distintas, sencillas, cotideanas pero bien contadas.

This was the film that introduced me to Pablo Trapero at the 2004 Toronto International Film Festival. It is a vibrant, very real slice of life following three generations of a family going to a wedding in rural Argentina. They travel in a small camper van and as a result several tensions and issues begin to flare up. Wonderfully told, this is terrific storytelling.

Troisieme film de Trapero, Voyage en famille ne fonctionne jamais vraiment. Dommage. L'homme est meilleur en feelbad movies, definitivement. Dommage que son meilleur film, El Bonaerense, sur les derives de la police de Buenos Aires, ne figure pas sur flickster (4 etoiles).
