If you don’t know who Steve Coogan or Rob Brydon is, well, that’s part of the point. In The Trip, Coogan and Brydon play mid-forties comedians who never really made it. Essentially, they play slightly fictionalized version of themselves. The first in a series of travelogues that buds/collaborators Coogan and Brydon did for the BBC that eventually turned into a feature length road movie. The Trip consists of the two driving through the English countryside, sampling food and wine, and turning dueling Michael Caine impersonations into a hilarious game. This is a great deal more entertaining than it sounds — largely because the two actors are gifted mimics. Brydon is the better one, although Coogan may disagree.
