The wedding site at the end of the road offers beautiful vistas overlooking Brazil, but it's hardly worth the trip.
What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
Thoroughly wonderful.
The film has humanity to burn, but its loose structure makes it hard to connect with the multiple characters.
This Argentinean comedy is short on plot and leisurely in its character development, though by the end it's become a modest and genial portrait of a dysfunctional family.
Don't try to figure Emilia's family out. Just sit back and let this family scrapbook move along.
The Hollywood Reporter by Michael Rechtshaffen
Filmmaker Trapero, a proponent of the New Argentine Cinema, employs a minimalist naturalism to tell what is obviously a very personal story that, at the same time, is certain to elicit widespread sighs of familiarity.
Still, after an hour and a half of exquisite photography and mushy action, audiences may well ask the unspoken question that plays across the faces of the Rolling Family clan right before the closing credits. Was it worth it?

Rolling Family is not a movie of ideas but an emotional and tactile experience of economy-class travel. In surveying a large swath of the Argentine landscape, it could be a companion piece to "The Motorcycle Diaries."
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.
