The friendship between two children is threatened by the differences between their parents.

Robert Koehler

Variety

Odyssey is laden with symbolic gestures denoting a nation in search of itself, but the pic suffocates in its own cuteness.

This unlikely friendship is sealed by potent elements that have much to do with a spontaneous rapport and instinctively human connectedness that transcend family social and political differences.

Alberti loses the edge to become more manipulative. The cinematography still shows the quality of a talented filmmaker, but his determination to be noncommittal takes that quality down a notch.

Rated: 2.5/4

This film reminded me so much of Cuba and my childhood. The whole friendship aspect of it, because thats how the life of a kid in some way is like in Cuba. The subtitles are not very accurate so it is best to know Spanish.

Love this movie! Really charming kids from two classes that love each other and it probably shows the most when they're angry at one another. I enjoyed the story and the trek across Cuba showing different sides of the country and even adding to the story as it unfolds.

Beautiful story of friendship and innocence. It also reminds us that life in Cuba is much more than the usual headlines we read about politics.
