‘The Trip’ Review: With This Gun, I Thee Shoot

In this Norwegian thriller on Netflix, a murderous couple get more bloodshed than they bargained for.

Share full article

By Lena Wilson

Most people don’t prepare for getaways with their spouses by buying a hammer, a hacksaw, duct tape and rope — but Lars (Aksel Hennie) is not most people, and “The Trip,” directed by Tommy Wirkola, is not most movies. Its initial premise is this: Lars has planned to murder his wife, Lisa (Noomi Rapace), during their holiday, but he’s thwarted when it turns out Lisa has been preparing to do away with him on the very same trip. Unfortunately, while that concept promises a fun, agile thriller, “The Trip” all too quickly descends into a juvenile, nihilistic mess.

Lars and Lisa’s mutual blood bath turns into a group affair when some unexpected outsiders, including the escaped convicts Dave (Christian Rubeck), Roy (Andre Eriksen) and Petter (Atle Antonsen), coincidentally join the fray. Each actor gamely tackles the ensuing violence and emotional turbulence, and Rapace is particularly excellent at juggling the two. The film reveals its many surprises through flashbacks, sharp editing and an absurd script clearly aiming for irreverence.

But “The Trip” upsets its own tenuous balance of darkness and drollery, grasping at tasteless material about genitals and poop, though its basic premise is much smarter — and perfectly delightful — on its own. Such artlessness turns what could be a quick, jaunty movie into a slog. By the end of a protracted attempted rape sequence, I was dismayed to discover that I was only halfway through its two-hour duration.

“The Trip” is occasionally fun, but other films have handled gleeful gore and psychological torture with a far more skillful touch. The film pays clear homage to Michael Haneke’s “Funny Games,” a whip-smart commentary on cinematic violence. It doesn’t do itself any favors by inviting that comparison.

The Trip Not rated. In Norwegian, with subtitles. Running time: 1 hour 53 minutes. Watch on Netflix.

Netflix’s The Trip is — well, I was going to give the usual spiel about it being a Norwegian black comedy-slash-thriller starring Noomi Rapace ( The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo , Prometheus ) and directed by Tommy Wirkola of Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters fame, but I’m just gonna cut to the chase and say it’s some sick shit. And as most sick shit goes, its smooth-as-guts-in-a-blender-set-on-puree mix of yucks and yuks is very much a take-it-or-leave-it affair.

THE TRIP : STREAM IT OR SKIP IT?

The Gist: For some reason, The Trip doesn’t open with a crazy scene that’s on the precarious lip of a suspenseful cliff before flashing back to the beginning — it just opens at the beginning. How very novel! So, a husband and wife sit in bed arguing and the conversation gets pretty nutty and out there and, as we suspected, they’re just actors on the set of a soap opera. Lars (Aksel Hennie) is the director. He chitchats with a co-worker about how he and his wife are going up to the cabin this weekend and he stresses repeatedly how she wants to go on a long hike into the mountains, and isn’t that dangerous? On his way home, he stops to visit his dad at the nursing home so the old man can question his manhood. Then he goes to the hardware emporium for a hammer, a hacksaw, some rope and duct tape — you know, the Serial Killer Special, $49.95.

He picks up Lisa (Rapace), and the bickering starts immediately. Needling. Irritation. Teensy little digs. Death by 1,000 cuts on both sides. Their professional lives are lousy and the poison’s bled into their personal lives. They get to the cabin and as he unloads his collection of suspicious tools, the camera lingers on a cabinet full of shotguns, and as she mills about the kitchen, the camera gets a lensful of butcher and bread knives. Why? No reason. Just the usual stuff you’d find in a cabin in the Norwegian forest where you might go hunting and then need to cut up the animal you killed.

Lars and Lisa drive each other nuts cooking and eating dinner, and before bed they play a game of Scrabble that only further sledgehammers the wedge between them. The next day, we follow Lars as he fetches the hammer from the basement and heads to the kitchen for two belts of booze, and the camera angle for this shot is canted, oh so very canted. He sneaks up behind Lisa and before he can ballpeen a hole in her skull she quickly turns around and tases him. It’s probably safe to say that marital counseling would be pointless at this stage of their relationship.

What Movies Will It Remind You Of?: The War of the Røsens ! (Yeah, I know, Røsen is Swedish, not Norwegian. Just give me this one!)

Performance Worth Watching: Rapace and Hennie are equally excellent at playing shitty people, pairing nicely like fava beans with a nice Chianti.

Memorable Dialogue: Lars gets in the nastiest dig ever (decontextualized to avoid a spoiler): “Maybe you’ll be satisfied now.”

Sex and Skin: None, but be warned, there are disturbing scenes of sexual assault.

Our Take: …Then again, Lars and Lisa do seem to finally be on the same page, homicidal though it may be, so loll that sweet and sticky caramel-flavored irony around in your mouth for a minute there. The revelation that they want to kill each other in the most literal fashion comes at the 21-minute mark of a 114-minute movie, so it’s not a spoiler to say things escalate from there, via a game of one-upspersonship that goes from cold to violent to utterly ruthless to extremely violent to repulsive to even more extremely violent to thoroughly complicated to flat-out gory as hell. And yes, other characters get involved, lest it get too repetitive. If you can hang with it through its demented twists and turns — no guarantees, love it or hate it, no deposit no return, mileage may vary, etc. — it’ll be to see what resolution Wirkola and co-screenwriters Nick Ball and John Niven came up with, and not because you root for any of these people, who are, at best, poor examples of the human species.

So I guess that means The Trip exists in the satire realm, where marital discord is depicted with immense exaggeration and grotesque homicidal impulses are rendered in rich, bloody reds. One wonders if Lars and Lisa find this elevation of confrontation therapeutic, going from passive-aggressive to insanely aggressive, dropping the sniper rifles for a knife fight, sometimes not at all in a metaphorical fashion. Wirkola occasionally crosses the line between bad taste (which is good; think John Waters) and tastelessness (which is bad; think R-rated Adam Sandler vehicles), spending the majority of the budget on burst blood vessels in eyes and viscous strings of various bodily fluids drooling from mouths and hamburgered knees and innards turned into out-ards — total gorebuckets, more splatter than two or three of those wussy middling slasher movies they make for eight-year-olds these days, he said, nudge wink grain of salt.

Anyway, the movie adheres to the cliche that all is fair in love and war. It’s amusing and irreverent, bleak and repulsive — and therefore an exercise in cognitive dissonance, I guess. It’s definitely conceived more in sickness than in health. For better or worse. ’Til death by disembowelment or shotgun do we part. I’m gonna stop there.

Our Call: STREAM IT. The Trip is far from great, and at its best, it’s barely good. But it inspires a few choking laughs, it’s challenging in its unpleasantness, and it’s likely to satisfy any iron stomachs who are up to the task.

[Editor’s note: The following review contains major spoilers for “The Trip (Onde Dager).”]

In real life, when married people say they think about murdering their spouse, most don’t actually mean it. In Tommy Wirkola’s devilishly fun black comedy “The Trip” (Norwegian title: “Onde Dager”), they do. Landing somewhere in a delicious Venn diagram between thriller, horror, and comedy, “The Trip” is a fast-paced joy ride that should make even the squeamish delight in a little bloodbath. Cheeky and inventive in equal measure, with brilliant performances all around, a whipsmart script and sharp pacing make “The Trip” one of the most fun watches of the year.

(Since much of the fun comes from an endless parade of rabbits Wirkola pulls out of his insane hat, knowing too much about the action could take the edge off. Consider yourself warned.)

The movie opens on a soap opera set, where a smoldering couple is fighting over an outrageous infidelity. “That’s right, I’m pregnant with your dead brother’s son’s baby,” a blonde actress cries, before the sleepy director calls cut. This is Lars (Aksel Hennie), a dissatisfied TV director whose career hasn’t worked out quite how he imagined. He’s heading to his family cabin with his wife Lisa ( Noomi Rapace ), where they plan to go hiking, a detail he makes sure to share loudly with anyone who will listen, including said blonde actress and his grouchy father. But when he stops by the hardware store for a hammer, saw, and rope, it’s clear he has other plans.

Exuding big “fabulous diva who hasn’t worked in years” energy, Rapace’s Lisa is dialed in from her first dramatic entrance. Sauntering down the driveway in a pink getup with sunglasses, hoop earrings swaying and gum popping, she hands Lars her purse as if he’s the help. With a final glance at the nefarious tools he’s squirreled away, Lars slams the trunk and the rocking title rolls. Buckle up, we’re in for a hell of a ride.

Once at the cabin, the couple needle each other about every little thing. They fiddle over the stove temperature, and when Lars won’t touch the raw steak he’s prepping, Lisa grabs it with her hands. Even their bickering is grounded in an all-too-relatable naturalism that feels forced in most on-screen marriages. After a tense dinner, Lars heads down to the basement to lay out his loot. Soon, he’s sneaking up behind Lisa, hammer in hand. It’s all so early in the film that it seems a prime fake-out. Perhaps he’s just planning some carpentry? But when he lunges at Lisa, she turns around and tases right him in the neck. Oh!

When Lars comes to, he’s tied up and, this time, Lisa is the one holding the hammer. When he admits he planned to kill her for her life insurance, she fesses up to her own similar plan. The camera swings to the left, and yellow block letters announce: “One Day Earlier.” This is the first of many quick flashes in the film, each one revealing information that upends the action in increasingly outrageous ways. It’s a clever trick, and it’s also one that’s never too indulgent. When the same technique introduces three escaped convicts with psychotic Three Stooges vibes, the fun has really only just begun.

There’s a whimsical, Wes Anderson-like quality to the way Wirkola introduces characters and plot twists, though the tone is more Martin McDonagh with a dash of Quentin Tarantino. Like the best McDonagh plays, the violence reaches wildly gratuitous levels without ever feeling like overkill. There’s comedy in the exaggeration, like the sound of brains plopping on the floor or a hand mangled by a boat motor. As the surprises roll in, the plot grows more and more outlandish, revealing the film’s full-on tongue-in-cheekiness. When Lars tells his father, bleeding out in his beloved hammock, “I just blew a guy’s balls off with a shotgun,” dad replies: “I’m proud of you, my son.”

Both seasoned Norwegian talents, Rapace and Hennie are wickedly good together. With her hair dyed a shade of trying-too-hard blonde, she milks humor from the desperate actress routine, despite sporting a quite successful career. Equal parts lumbering and lost, Hennie is the perfect blend of bumbling fool who looks like he could wrestle a mountain lion if he had to. With the right level of empathy and insanity, these two sell the emotion behind the couple’s bloody vitriol, eventually grounding the film in a satisfying human realness. There’s no risk of things turning maudlin once an old man has been shredded by a lawnmower, but it’s nice to find a little light at the end of this bloody, whirlwind tunnel.

The guide to our grades, parent movie review by savannah sillito.

Lars (Aksel Hennie) and Lisa (Noomi Rapace) have a struggling marriage, as well as problems in their professional lives. In an effort to get away and reconnect, they decide to spend a few days in their remote cabin. Unbeknownst to their spouse, both Lisa and Lars have a plan to kill the other. But when their plans start to go awry, the pair realize they have an even bigger danger to face.

Horror and comedy are two genres that have potential to mix well, and there are many times when they have. The Trip tries to be a dark comedy while also attempting to be an ultra-violent home invasion story, and unfortunately, I don’t think the tone quite lands. The first half or so of the runtime is expertly done. The writing is clever and well thought out, and the comedy, though dark, lands. The characters are well established and multi-layered, and the plot has enough twists to keep the audience guessing. If the film had continued in this vein, this would have been an outstanding production. Disappointingly, the story falls apart just past the halfway mark and devolves into a barely strung together series of violent vignettes. The characters and humor are forgotten in favor of excessive blood and gore.

I think it should be obvious by now, but this is not a film for people with weak stomachs, or who are sensitive to swearing. I believe this production beats my past personal record for most F-bombs in one sitting, coming in at approximately 90. I won’t belabor the point about the level of violence, but it is graphic and gory. For those reasons, on top of the jarring tone and uneven writing, I don’t recommend The Trip for general audiences, or even for horror aficionados.

Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that The Trip is a dark comedy-horror in which an unhappily married couple takes a trip to a remote cabin, with each planning to kill the other. This is definitely not for kids. There's an attempted rape scene in which one of three escaped convicts pulls down the pants of the husband as he's bent over a pool table. The husband screams and pleads for mercy, and the leader of the convicts forces the husband to grovel and kiss his feet, with tongue. One of the convicts wants the wife to reveal her breasts so he can masturbate -- talk of wanting to rape her as well. The violence is gruesome, graphic, and bloody. Characters are killed, maimed, and injured in a variety of ways -- everything from lawn mower propellors, motorboat propellors, rifles, knives, fishing hooks, rakes, etc. Constant profanity -- nearly every word is used at some point: "f--k" (a lot), "motherf--king," "s--t," "chickens--t," "bulls--t," "c--ksucking," "c--t," "pr--k," "c--k," "t-ts," "t-tties," "bitch," "ass," "badass," "crap," "damn," "hell." Homophobic slur used by the elderly father of the lead character. Some graphic talk as the married couple argues about their sex lives, or lack thereof. One of the convicts has tattoos of a swastika and Hitler, and spits on the wedding photo of the married couple, as the photo reveals them to be Jews. Drinking, cigarette smoking.

What's the Story?

In THE TRIP, Lars ( Aksel Hennie ) and Lisa ( Noomi Rapace ) are an unhappily married couple, and that's putting it mildly. Lars is an unsuccessful director, and Lisa is an unsuccessful actor, and they plan a getaway to a remote cabin owned by Lars' cantankerous elderly father. However, they soon discover that they both have plans far beyond rest and relaxation: Lars is planning to murder Lisa and Lisa is planning to murder Lars. When both of their plots are foiled, resulting in rifle shots and gruesome death, three escaped convicts who were trying to hide out in the attic fall through the ceiling. Led by the coldly psychotic Petter, the three men tie up Lars and Lisa in the basement, with plans to commit sexual assault before killing them. After Lars endures a traumatic experience and degradation, he and Lisa must find a way to escape, turn the tables on their captors, and maybe even try to fix their marriage.

Is It Any Good?

This is a gruesomely graphic and pitch-black comedy-horror-thriller loaded with entertaining plot twists great and small. The Trip starts off seemingly as an intentionally ludicrous dark comedy about a married couple who have grown to hate each other so much, they've both decided to kill the other while on a vacation in a remote cabin. There's a glib nihilism that makes our unhappily married couple seem like a Scandinavian Al and Peg Bundy, but as we get deeper into the movie's second act, plot twists that are rewarding for those paying close attention start to unfurl, and while there are still elements of the darkest comedy, what really begins to emerge is a series of increasingly violent confrontations. It starts becoming less like Married with Children and more like Deliverance , and not just due to the most disturbing scene in the movie.

It's a fast-paced and stylish, rooted in the film school of Ritchie, Tarrantino, etc. Expect time jumps, caustic dialogue, the frenzy of unusual violence. In spite of or because of this, it's a good movie. In a movie filled with surprise and tension, the movie's very end is perhaps the least surprising aspect to the movie, and drives home the nihilism permeating so much of the rest of the movie. It's a choice that works for the overall style of the movie, even if you feel cheated for the times when you rooted for the lead characters to survive the violence and brutality they've suffered. It's a major understatement to say that this isn't exactly a kid-friendly movie, but for older teens and adults who enjoy this kind of noir style and sensibility, there's a lot to enjoy with The Trip .

Talk to Your Kids About ...

Families can talk about the violence in The Trip . Was it necessary to the story? How much is too much?

None of the characters are very likable. Why do you think there's an appeal for characters who don't seem to have any redeeming features? What changes and doesn't change with Lars and Lisa, individually and as a couple, over the course of the movie?

The story is filled with numerous plot twists. How do plot twists in action-heavy movies like these add to the entertainment value? Did this movie's plot twists surprise you?

The Trip – Netflix Review [Fantastic Fest] (4/5)

Posted by Karina "ScreamQueen" Adelgaard | Sep 26, 2021 | 3 minutes

THE TRIP is a new Netflix movie from Norway (org. title I onde dager ). Officially an action thriller, but it’s more of a Nordic horror-comedy. Think Tarantino, but with a Scandinavian twist. Screened at Fantastic Fest and yeah, I loved it. Read our full The Trip movie review here!

THE TRIP is a new Netflix movie that just screened at Fantastic Fest where we saw it. It also played in movie theaters in its native Norway (org. title I onde dager ) and will be out on Netflix later for all the world to enjoy. And yes, you really should enjoy this one.

While it is officially (on IMDb) labeled as an action thriller, this one is more along the lines of a horror-comedy. It’s extremely violent and bloody but also with very funny and weird moments. Tarantino craziness dialed into a Nordic twist. Hell, this is better than Tarantino to me (and I do like Quentin Tarantino).

Continue reading our The Trip movie review below and look for it on Netflix from October 15, 2021.

Till death do us part

The tagline for The Trip is “till death do us part” because the initial plot of this movie is about a married couple who wants to kill one another. They literally both have plans to kill the other during their weekend trip to a cabin in the Norwegian mountains. Whether they still have these plans by the end of the movie is the question you’ll ultimately sit with!

The married couple is played by the always amazing Noomi Rapace (the original Lisbeth Salander ) and Aksel Hennie. Noomi Rapace ( Rupture ) is Swedish and Aksel Hennie ( The Cloverfield Paradox ) is Norwegian, so both languages are spoken throughout the movie. However, the dialogue – however strong it is (and it really is!) – isn’t the main thing in The Trip .

Instead, the crazy and very violent scenes tend to take charge.

Honestly, I was a little (okay, a lot) nervous when I saw the runtime was 1 hour and 53 minutes. That sounded way too long for a movie with such a silly and crazy plot. However, rest assured, there is plenty of storylines to fill that runtime.

Especially since twists and turns with new characters are followed by flashbacks to show us how the new characters wound up in the same place. These scenes in particular offer some extremely funny (and often cringeworthy) moments!

The Trip – Review | Netflix Horror Comedy

Make sure you watch The Trip on Netflix

Tommy Wirkola is the director and co-writer behind The Trip . If you’re a fan of crazy horror-comedies, then you’ve (hopefully) watched the Nazi-zombie craziness that is Dead Snow (2009). If not, I cannot urge you enough to check it out. Any fan of the horror-comedy hybrid genre needs to check out that one.

Other movies by Tommy Wirkola include What Happened to Monday (2017) which also starred Noomi Rapace along with Glenn Close and Willem Dafoe. And also Witch Hunters (2013) starring Gemma Arterton and Jeremy Renner. Essentially, Tommy Wirkola has worked both on bigger international movies and the smaller Scandinavian productions.

The result is usually better with these Norwegian productions, but I suspect it’s due to having a much higher level of artistic freedom. You shouldn’t hold back the awesome craziness of a filmmaker like Tommy Wirkola. When you don’t, you’ll get a brilliantly entertaining movie like this one.

We screened THE TRIP at Fantastic Fest 2021, but it will also be out on Netflix from October 15, 2021.

A married couple travels to their isolated cabin in the woods for some peace and quiet, with the husband planning to murder his wife. Of course, nothing goes as planned, and things only get worse from there…

I write reviews and recaps on Heaven of Horror. And yes, it does happen that I find myself screaming, when watching a good horror movie. I love psychological horror, survival horror and kick-ass women. Also, I have a huge soft spot for a good horror-comedy. Oh yeah, and I absolutely HATE when animals are harmed in movies, so I will immediately think less of any movie, where animals are harmed for entertainment (even if the animals are just really good actors). Fortunately, horror doesn't use this nearly as much as comedy. And people assume horror lovers are the messed up ones. Go figure!

The Trip (2021) Review – A Home Invasion Black-Comedy cum Splatter Gorefest

Norwegian screenwriter and filmmaker Tommy Wirkola, known for his affinity to blend horror with comedy in both Dead Snow films and Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters , is back with yet another dark comedy. Starring Noomi Rapace and Aksel Hennie, The Trip is a genre-bending blend of black comedy and home invasion action thriller that brashly mixes the familiar tropes of irreverent humour, inappropriate jokes, grotesque head splatter, and overflowing bloodbath. It is a wild ride that indulges in a unique mix of entertaining and funny as well as cringeworthy and wincing moments of laughter, violence, and satire.

Originally titled I Onde Danger in the Norwegian language, it follows a dysfunctional couple Lars and Lisa who heads out of the city to a remote cabin in the long weekend to apparently reconnect, but with sinister and murderous intentions for each other. When the film commences, Lars is introduced as a failed filmmaker who is stalled out in cheesy soap operas. He repeatedly tells his crew as well as his cantankerous father that he and Lisa are going to the cabin where she is determined to take a dangerous hike. He is also shown buying a hammer, a hacksaw, duct tape and rope that gives away his nefarious plans for his spouse.

Lisa is also dissatisfied in her life as a struggling actress known for her role in an erectile dysfunction commercial. She indulges in having an affair with Diego when Lars neglects and forsakes her. She is also drafting a wicked plan involving an accident during a hunting expedition that will be detrimental to the life of Lars.

High On Films in collaboration with Avanté

But the arrival of the jailbirds on loose, the absurd and savage trio Roy, Petter, and Dave who chose the isolated cabin to remain inconspicuous, interrupted the planned executions of Lars and Lisa. Caught in the crossfire, Lars and Lisa confront threatening circumstances and embarrassing and demeaning situations while dealing with the triad of the Nazi, the rapist and the murderer.

What follows between the adversaries is a series of comic and catastrophic complications and unforeseen turn of events that results in a bloody dismemberment of those who get in the way. Spanning almost two hours, The Trip goes on for too long, though it slowly heightens up the violence from a bickering couple squabbling over domestic disagreements to an aggressive hostage situation to finally a fairly nasty and bloody gorefest.

Noomi Rapace as Lisa and Aksel Hennie as Lars create the resemblance of a couple involved in an unhealthy and toxic relationship and also showcases the perfect chemistry in their extraordinary comedic skills together and individually. The initial car ride gives us a glimpse of the disgust and hatred the couple has for each other as they derive pleasure from taunting and provoking each other, from a silly board game quarrel to their future prospects in their respective careers. Lars’ bittersweet characterisation of a betrayed and sulky husband is contrasted with Lisa’s caricature of Lars as a spoiled and self-centered person who struggles financially. The relatively short establishing scenes recognise the passive aggression between the protagonists which later turns into mutual bloodshed.

The film is structured in such a way that it has an unessential episodic quality where every new piece of information is divulged by going back in time to depict how those plot developments came to be. With every new character who appears out of nowhere, the film immediately backtracks and retract to a few days before to supply that character’s backstory up to the present. It is a clever way of narration but slows down the narrative’s propulsion to move forward more than necessary. It was also felt that the film could have gained a bit of pace and tempo at some scenes where sequences could have been condensed.

The Trip consistently follows the conventions of splatter cinema mixing it with elements of comedy in the graphic depiction of gore and violence. The spectacle of the physical destruction of the body adds to the bloodiness and it explicitly portrays the punches in the face, broken legs, shotgun shots, and the gore with a lawnmower. The bloodfest after the blows, the bruises, and the severed limbs are captured in colourful detail. Apart from the trio of prison escapees, the meddlesome neighbour and the deus ex machina were also found involved in the grand scheme of things as the film takes an increasingly farcical drift.

Wirkola’s influence of classical filmmakers like Haneke, Tarantino , and Coel brothers is evident in the film, but it is also comprehensible that other films have handled gleeful gore and psychological torture with a far more skilful touch. The Trip utilises the same premise of Michael Haneke’s classic home invasion horror Funny Games (2007), but instead of the psychological sadistic games, Wikola creates chaotic situations through dark humour and a splattery conclusion. The musical score of The Trip resembles that of the Tarantino style and Wirkola has used well-known Norwegian songs to enhance the momentum and immediacy to place the spectators in a crescendo.

The film is not without inconsistencies as it occasionally disturbs the tenuous balance of grotesque and gloomy, utilising tasteless and poor references and materials. The film is interspersed with politically incorrect jokes, poop references, puns and gory gags which pushes down the narrative in poor taste. The film also takes a nosedive when it delves into threats of sexual assault and rape as it feels too dark for black humour. The treatment of meta-filmic and meta-television satire within the narrative provided the quality of an advertisement furthering the sense of estrangement in the spectators.

In spite of being entertaining, the film offers nothing new that distinctly captures the notice of the audience. If one leaves aside the discrepancies and recoiling elements, it will be well-received by the viewers of Tommy Wirkola’s movies. But it is undeniable that The Trip, with its abundance of violence and bloodshed, is not a movie that suits everyone.

Review by Rafael "Parker!!" Jovine ★★★

In terms of black comedies, I personally believe that being too effective, especially in terms of performances, is the worst thing one could do. Taking this path often detracts from the experience.

Indeed, while most of the cast, from our criminals to Noomi, delivered excellent performances, whether it was a bitter wife or a bimbo neo-Nazi, the biggest reason I couldn't stand most of the film was because of Aksel Hennie who was simply an unbearable piece of shit for most of the movie, which made me root for the baddies throughout the film. And you know are a complete dipshit where you have me, a Jew descendant, rooting for an apparent Neo-nazi instead of you.

As for the story…

Review by King #adoptdontshop ★★★½

Good chaos!

The Trip is a twisty, hilarious, and entertaining movie about a couple's hijacked plan to kill each other. Noomi Rapace and Aksel Hennie as warring wife and husband sold their characters well, bringing us the strains of a crumbling marriage with comical, macabre ease. These actors are supported by villains who seemed to be having a blast filming too. The Trip 's turns gets better and better with each passing detail using A-form script, witty dialogue, inventive storytelling and constant energetic atmosphere. Tommy Wikola should also be commended for his committed direction; maximizing the location, the witty dialogue and the rambunctious climax to its full effect. A black comedy-thriller that's gory, bloody and gruesome without the eek factor, The Trip is a trip worth taking.

Review by Kevflix And Chill ★★★ 1

#SlasherSaturday For some reason, I did not place that this was Noomi Rapace in the lead until just now when I was writing this. Perhaps because I watched the English dub and it wasn’t actually her voice I was hearing. This was a really fun watch, though. Tommy Wirkola brings the violence and there’s a good amount of pretty hilarious dialogue too. Appreciate the pick because I’m still lagging behind on watching more of Wirkola’s work. Probably about time to watch Violent Night again.

i really had no idea what to expect with this one, but i loved it. it definitely felt a bit awkward at first, but once things really got going, it had my full attention. this was such a fun comedic thriller/horror film with plenty of violence and a brilliant ending. them constantly leaving weapons on the ground drove me crazy though.

Review by Mister Cap ★★★½ 4

"The Trip" ist ein wirklich wilder Ritt, bei dem Rückblenden dauernd die zentrale Handlung unterbrechen, nur damit man versteht, was gerade jetzt passiert.

Es ist ein cleverer Trick, den das Skript mehrmals verwendet und er bleibt auch bis zum letzten Aufguss faszinierend, da er ständig eine weitere Ebene hinzufügt, gerade wenn wir glauben, die Richtung des Films zu kennen.

Neben den wirklich sehr blutigen Gewaltexzessen, ist der pechschwarze, clevere Humor, vor allem nachdem er die Furz und Scheiße Phase hinter sich gebracht hat, besonders markant und hat mich an manchen Stellen laut lachen lassen.

Ich fand es toll, dass die beiden Hauptfiguren, Lisa und Lars (Noomi Rapace und Aksel Hennie) nach anfänglichen "Unstimmigkeiten", gezwungen waren, sich wieder zusammen zu raufen…

Review by Robert E. Acuña ★★½ 2

When they do the American remake I hope it's just a sequel to 'Marriage Story' but with guns and gore. That way the " Adam Driver Prophecy " can be fulfilled.

'The Trip' or 'In Bad Times' is a film that takes its wacky premise way too seriously. Like this is some 'Home Alone' type shit and they are treating it with so much unnecessary respect.

Noomi Rapace and Aksel Hennie give really great performances. When the film leans into the goofiness they excel flawlessly.

But this film struggles the minute the 3 convicts show up. It gets so serious that the humor becomes jarring when it returns. 'Ready or Not' did this same idea but kept it funny all throughout and was better for it.

This just didn't click for me as I had hoped.

Review by Big Rig ★★★

It’s always a pleasant surprise to come across a Netflix film that I thoroughly enjoy, and The Trip is one such film.

Wirkola and his cast are 100% committed to this film, which really shines through in the final product. The film understands its roots, and exploits them to create a film that is as funny as it is dark, and as fun as it is horrifying. My only really issue is that there were some jarring tonal discrepancies within these differing styles. The darkly comedic exchanges and situations are brilliant, but are stitched between terribly nihilistic themes which, although interesting in their own way, seem misplaced.

Despite its flaws, The Trip deserves to stand alongside Wirkola’s Dead Snow (and perhaps unlike Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters…).

Review by aswin rayendra ★★★½

Such a gem to be found in Netflix.. And what a family bonding movie it is all about! Better to go into the movie blind without reading any synopsis about it and you'll get a gory, energetic, with a pinch of Tarantino-esque black comedy thriller and it's just so much fun, maybe the bloodiest thing I've ever seen from some of the releases this year. Noomi Rapace and Aksel Hennie also led the movie brilliantly. My main gripe is that it has kind of TV-movie picture looking quality into it, but it's still worth your time to watch.

Review by Zay ★★★★½ 2

The Trip is a bonkers Norwegian black comedy full of bloody comical shenanigans. Similar to last year's Russian Why Don't You Just Die! A couple goes up to a cabin for a seemingly peaceful weekend that turns out to be anything but. Double crosses, shotgun blasts, quirky characters, and toxic relationships make this one of the most entertaining films of the year!

*Available via Netflix*

Review by Lynn Betts ★★★½ 8

# SlasherSaturday finally up-to-date for my first anniversary! Thanks to my fellow slash monkeys: you've been a real lifeline to me over the past year!

And now, for THE TRIP (pick for Dec 2):

Noomi Rapace and Scandanavian yuppie slashing? Where do I sign up?

I know not all foreign films need reboots or remakes - and of course not as quickly as the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series - but may I suggest Margot Robbie and Bill Burr for the Hollywood version?

That married couple... everyone knows a married couple like this, with whom you wouldn't be surprised if something twisted and sordid went down between them.

No real innocents here, so it's fun to see them gorily duke it out.

The Trip (2021) ending explained – what danger is inside the cabin?

This article discusses the ending of the Netflix film The Trip (2021), so it will contain major spoilers.

Read the review.

The Trip is a Norwegian dark comedy thriller that tells the story of a married couple, Lisa (played by Noomi Rapace) and Lars (played by Aksel Hennie), who seem hell-bent on killing each other. Due to financial hardship, both parties plan on killing the other for life insurance during a trip in a cabin. But when it appears as though they may both kill each other, they learn that three escaped inmates have taken shelter in the cabin.

As a result, the three prisoners, Petter (Atle Antonsen), Dave (Christian Rubeck), and Roy (André Eriksen), take Lisa and Lars hostage. In a scene that possibly goes too far for a comedy, Dave threatens to rape Lars until Lisa states that she will provide the prisoners with money for their release. And after they accept, Petter, Dave, and Roy enjoy the luxury of the cabin whilst Lisa and Lars are left to reflect on their marriage.

Seemingly making amends, Lisa and Lars make a plan for freedom. Upon claiming to need the toilet, Lars knocks out Roy with a sock of billiard balls, which then sets off a chain of events that sees the three prisoners attempt to find Lisa and Lars. Upon Roy refinding them, Lars shoots Roy in the head.

Netflix film The Trip (2021) ending explained

There appears to help at hand when Lars’s father, Mikkel, appears at the cabin, and he shoots Dave in the leg. But lurking from behind is Petter, and he stabs Mikkel before he throws him on top of what appears to be a very sharp lawnmower. With chaos breaking out, Lisa heads towards a boat whilst Dave looks for anything to tend to his leg wound. But he’s out of luck when Lars finds him first. Before Lars ponders on where to shoot Dave, Lars steals his sweater and kills him.

After Mikkel dies in a hammock, Lars chases after Lisa who is now trapped on the boat with Petter. Now instead of Lars vs Lisa, it’s Lars and Lisa vs Petter. They have a battle on their hands. Even the use of a fire extinguisher and a flare gun isn’t enough to kill Petter. However, Lars is eventually able to overpower Petter and pushes him into the boat’s engine, slicing his arms off.

“Sorry, but you no longer add value.” And with that, Lars and Lisa chuck Petter into the river and watch as he drowns. But when the rope tangles around Lar’s foot, Lisa is left with a choice. Save Lars or leave him to die. Ultimately, she saves him. (Quite the turnaround from how she felt at the beginning of the movie).

As The Trip concludes, Lars and Lisa are alive but broke. That is until the media take an interest in their story of survival. One thing leads to another, and they end up making a screenplay on their experience, making them millionaires. Although to save face, they change a few details, such as removing the moment that Lars licked Petter’s shoe.

THE TRIP Review

THE TRIP Review. THE TRIP movie stars Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon. Movie directed by Michael Winterbottom, who also directed THE KILLER INSIDE ME.

In the midst of a summer movie season dominated by expensive special effects and loud noises, one of the most entertaining cinematic offerings available consists of little more than two people talking. Michael Winterbottom’s The Trip traps British comedians Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon together for an extended road trip across England that sees them visiting restaurants, landmarks, poet’s homes, and bickering relentlessly along the way. The film is something of a feature length ode to a neurotic friendship between two longtime collaborators and study of middle age listlessness. It’s also really fucking funny and should not be missed by any self-confessed British comedy fan or anyone who simply enjoys laughter for that matter. Hit the jump for the full review.

Michael Winterbottom has been something of an odd duck of British filmmaking over the last decade, cranking out a film a year with subject matter varying from post-9/11 political thrillers ( Road To Guantanamo, A Mighty Heart ) to a controversial Jim Thompson adaptation ( The Killer Inside Me ) and an attempt at arty erotica, aka porn with a purpose ( 9 Songs) . During that time he’s also carved out a niche as the main director helping longtime British comic Steve Coogan bring his unique talents to film. Coogan’s cracks at American filmmaking like Hamlet 2 and Around The World In 80 Days have largely been met with indifference and perhaps rightly so as they haven’t really captured his unique style. His TV work has achieved almost legendary status in Britain with his most famous creation Alan Partridge breaking ground in the world of hyper-realistic cringe comedy years before Ricky Gervais achieved international fame with The Office . Together the actor and director created a hilarious ode to the 70s/80s Manchester music scene in 24 Hour Party People as well as the bizarre exorcise in literary and cinematic self-consciousness Tristam Shandy . This appeal of that second film lied primarily in hilarious conversations between Coogan and Rob Brydon playing particularly neurotic versions of themselves and in a way The Trip feels like a sequel of sorts to that movie, with everything but the extended improv sessions removed.

The approach is barebones minimalism, but it works. Cogan and Bryon’s natural comedic rhythm born out of years of friendship offers more than enough material to carry the movie. It’s as if Winterbottom noticed that lunches he shared with the two actors on the sets of their previous movies proved to be funnier than what they were actually working on and decided to cut out the rest. In the UK The Trip was released as a 6-part TV series, but overseas we get a feature film version that cuts the running time in half. In lesser hands and with a more complicated plot, the result of that odd editing choice could have been disjointed and felt half-baked. But with a project as episodic and simple as this, the extra editing just provides a more streamlined and concise experience.

There’s no real point in going into a detailed plot description because there isn’t much of one. Coogan hires Brydon to join him on a cross-country restaurant tour for a newspaper article that was supposed to be a romantic trip with his decades younger girlfriend. But with her in LA, the trip turns into a gentle battle of egos between old friends and an excuse for a revenge-fueled string of affairs from Coogan. The heart of the movie lies in the contrast between Brydon’s content existence as a B-lister with a happy family life and Coogan’s endless desperation for greater fame and perpetual string of short-term relationships that leave him alone and unhappy. It’s a fascinating and at times uncomfortably candid portrayal of the easily bruised egos of creative people and the pain of being alone while middle-aged (in a weird way, it’s almost somewhat of a companion piece to Conan O’Brien Can’t Stop ). That material is bitterly funny in a way that cuts deep and hurts, but fortunately it’s not all so heavy handed. Large portions of the dinner conversations consist of the remarkable mimics competing with their impressions of people like Michael Caine, Richard Burton, Anthony Hopkins, and several James Bonds. The scenes are cripplingly funny and free of melancholy. Plus in a nice touch, as the film and impressions wear on, the characters actually seem to tire of it before the audience.

The Trip is a frequently hysterical comedy with just enough human insight to feel substantial. For the most part, Winterbottom does a good job of setting the scene for the uninitiated even if a handful of jokes might fly over the heads of audiences unfamiliar with Coogan or Brydon’s long careers. It’s a fragile wisp of a movie with an emotional punch that sneaks up on you between the easy, rambling laughs. There are no big action scenes or lovingly framed booty shots to keep ADD viewers focused, but with so much of that available at the moment it’s feels like a breath of fresh air to see a movie that focuses entirely on the simple pleasures of careful characterization and acting. Inevitably, The Trip won’t appeal to everyone; however, for those willing to be seduced by its simple charms, this is one of the must-see movies of the summer.

Movie Reviews

Tv/streaming, collections, great movies, chaz's journal, contributors, a doc about the same actors having dinner.

Now streaming on:

After some movies, Gene Siskel liked to say, "I wish I'd seen a documentary about the same actors having lunch." A whimsical new movie named "The Trip" puts his theory to the test. We've seen Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon co-starring in " Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story " (2005), and now here they are having lunch.

The pretense is that the Observer newspaper has assigned Coogan to do an article about dining in the north of England. His qualifications seem to be that he was born in Manchester, and he eats. When his girlfriend begs off the tour, he recruits his old friend Brydon to drive along, magnanimously offering to give him 45 percent of the fee. Brydon bids farewell to his wife and child, and the two set off in Coogan's Land Rover under gray winter skies.

The film, directed by Michael Winterbottom , consists of (1) Coogan and Brydon talking in the car; (2) Coogan and Brydon talking at breakfast, lunch and dinner; (3) Coogan's luck at seducing hotel staff members; (4) Coogan standing alone in chilly but lovely landscapes trying to find a signal for his cell phone; (5) food being prepared and served, and (6) shots of the car on motorways and country lanes.

This is a great deal more entertaining than it sounds, in large part because the two actors are gifted mimics — Brydon the better one, although Coogan doesn't think so. They get into a sort of competition that allows them to compete with their versions of such as Michael Caine , Ian McKellen , Sean Connery , Woody Allen and others. Brydon does a virtuoso impression of Caine's voice evolving from his early days in "The Ipcress File" through decades of whiskey and cigars into its present richness.

There's an undercurrent of rivalry throughout, based on what Coogan sees as his greater fame, success and talent. What especially bugs him is that he's seen as a comic actor and denied a shot at the heavy duty A-list material he feels he deserves. He also sees himself as more handsome, fitter and successful than Brydon, and from the way he considers his hair in a mirror you'd think he wanted it to look that way.

Curiously, they give only perfunctory attention to the many meals they eat, although Winterbottom faithfully goes into the kitchens to show each one being prepared. Scallops are featured in at least half the meals. One breakfast centers on black pudding, which I believe is best eaten with the eyes closed.

Along the way, they visit Lake District sites associated with Wordsworth and Coleridge, quote copiously, and speculate on Coleridge's use of opium. Coogan's reaction shot is priceless when one woman recognizes Brydon but not him. There's an undercurrent: Brydon has a family to return to in a cozy home; Coogan has a son he's distant from and a barren, modern apartment.

It's a good question how true any of this is. The movie lists no screenwriters, but although it looks like a documentary, it isn't one. Apparently it was edited down from a longer BBC-TV series during which the food was possibly more discussed. At the end we're left with the intriguing question: Would we rather see the same two actors in a regular story?

Construction begins on high-speed rail between Vegas and California

Brightline west will make the trip between las vegas and rancho cucamonga in a little over two hours.

Privately owned train company Brightline held a groundbreaking ceremony Monday for a $12 billion high-speed rail project connecting Las Vegas and Southern California.

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg joined company leaders and other officials for the start of construction in Las Vegas.

Brightline West benefits from $3 billion in federal funds from President Biden ’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Trains could be running as soon as early 2028, in time for the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

Travelers have a lot to look forward to. Electric trains will depart every 45 minutes from a Las Vegas station south of the city’s storied Strip and a Southern California station in Rancho Cucamonga, a Los Angeles suburb about 40 miles east of downtown.

Traveling at up to 186 mph — faster than any other train in the United States — Brightline West trains will make the 218-mile trip in about 2 hours and 10 minutes.

“At long last, we’re building the first high-speed rail project in our nation’s history,” President Biden said of Brightline West in December. “We’ve been talking about this project for decades. Now we’re really getting it done.”

Other high-speed railroads that would carry passengers at 200 mph and faster are in the works in California, Texas and the Pacific Northwest.

“The bottom line here is we changed the trajectory,” Buttigieg said in an interview Monday. More than $30 billion from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law has been awarded to date and more is on the way, he added.

The success of the Brightline West project could influence how future rail projects receive funding.

“It won’t be easy but I think they have all of the right things in place to get this done,” Buttigieg said.

Speed is Brightline West’s main selling point. Driving between Rancho Cucamonga and Las Vegas takes at least three hours without traffic, according to Google Maps.

“You’ll be sitting there flying by on Brightline looking at all these brake lights on the highway and thinking, ‘It sucks to be you,’” said Jim Mathews, CEO of the Rail Passengers Association , said on Friday. “That’s what it’s going to be like for all those people trying to get from greater Los Angeles to Las Vegas.”

Brightline West trains will run along Interstate 15 for nearly their entire journey. They will make two intermediate stops in California: one in Hesperia and one in Apple Valley.

Travelers coming from Los Angeles will have the option of riding Metrolink , Southern California’s regional rail system, to the Rancho Cucamonga station located near the junction of Interstates 10 and 15. The trip between downtown Los Angeles and Rancho Cucamonga takes at least 50 minutes by car without traffic, or 1 hour and 15 minutes on the train.

“Getting it to a juncture where pretty much everybody who passes into the I-15 corridor goes through is a massive benefit from a climate perspective, a congestion perspective, and an economic perspective,” Buttigieg said.

Future plans include a direct connection for Brightline West to Los Angeles Union Station as part of the separate California High-Speed Rail project.

Speed won’t be the only reason to ride Brightline West.

Brightline’s Florida operation connecting Miami to Orlando opened in September , giving future customers out West an idea of what to expect. Before Brightline’s debut, Amtrak held a monopoly on intercity passenger rail travel for decades.

Stations are spacious with comfortable areas to sit, bars selling craft cocktails and a lounge for premium passengers. Onboard, travelers enjoy assigned seats and fast WiFi. Attendants come down the aisle serving snacks and drinks throughout the trip.

Brightline told investors that it carried a record 258,307 passengers in March, and that one in three of its trains were nearly full.

Brightline’s strong ridership, though slower than initially promised to investors, makes a strong case for building fast and frequent trains between major U.S. cities such as Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

Brightline West estimates that 6 million people will ride its trains during the first full year of operation, according to a federal environmental assessment . That number is projected to grow to as many as 9.2 million people within a decade.

The company estimates that, without the train, three-quarters of its riders would drive between Southern California and Las Vegas. Another 15 percent would fly, and the balance would not make the trip at all.

How we travel now: More people are taking booze-free trips — and airlines and hotels are taking note. Some couples are ditching the traditional honeymoon for a “buddymoon” with their pals. Interested? Here are the best tools for making a group trip work.

Bad behavior: Entitled tourists are running amok, defacing the Colosseum , getting rowdy in Bali and messing with wild animals in national parks. Some destinations are fighting back with public awareness campaigns — or just by telling out-of-control visitors to stay away .

Safety concerns: A door blew off an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max 9 jet, leaving passengers traumatized — but without serious injuries. The ordeal led to widespread flight cancellations after the jet was grounded, and some travelers have taken steps to avoid the plane in the future. The incident has also sparked a fresh discussion about whether it’s safe to fly with a baby on your lap .

‘Conan O’Brien Must Go’ Is a Keeper: TV Review

Legendary talk show host and hot wing evangelist returns to television with hilarious new Max travel show

Conan O'Brien tries Thai boxing with predictable results.

The key to understanding Conan O’Brien’s comedy is knowing that it comes from a point of kindness. Yes, I know in this age of comics punching down , this kind of compliment may leave you with a neon “Must Avoid!” sign flashing in your bleary eyes — but stay with me.

Popular on Variety

Conan’s three-decade run as a talk show host ended in 2021 under less-than-optimal circumstances , as he wound down his TBS show during the pandemic year. He talked to longtime sidekick Andy Richter , who sat among dozens of cardboard cutout fans. O’Brien quipped that they were last in line for the vaccine because the CDC had looked at the shows and “they said ours is the least essential of pretty much all the non-essential shows.”

There was some truth in that, but Conan had already started his move to other outlets , starting with his “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend” podcast in 2018.

The podcast is funny and sweet, especially the pre-interview segments with longtime associate Sona Movsesian and producer Matt Gourley. Conan mocks Sona’s legendarily bad work habits. and Gourley’s flea market predilections, but any kind of comedic acid is reserved for the self-lacerating O’Brien. (On a recent episode, Conan runs down his own looks, and it is cruel and hilarious, but part of me is thinking, “Dude, cut yourself a break.”). The only time things get contentious is when Conan visited by longtime friend Kevin Nealon — perhaps the podcast’s best episodes.

The podcast had an offshoot called “Conan O’Brien Needs a Fan,” on which O’Brien would talk to a fan, often in a faraway land. That led to O’Brien traveling to Norway, Thailand, Ireland and Argentina to meet them. Why? Well, a dour and ominous narrator, aka Werner Herzog, offered this rationale at the beginning of each episode: “Once a proud talk show host, he’s been driven by a changing ecosystem to a drier and harsher climate: the weekly podcast. Here , without the nourishment of his studio audience, this clown with dull , tiny eyes, the eye of a crudely painted doll , is forced to feed on that meagerest of morsels: the random call-in fan. Unhinged by the feral scent of their mild enthusiasm. He scavenges in distant lands uninvited, fueled by a bottomless hunger for recognition , and the occasional selfie.”

It’s a self-deprecating bit, but it’s also the truth. Conan has been doing travel shows for years, most notably one to Movsesian’s native Armenia , as well as a chaotic trip to Finland where O’Brien is treated as a god because of his physical resemblance to the Finnish president who happens to be a woman. He clearly loves the journey. And he loves the comedy set piece–see his classic “Old Timey Baseball” opus — which has always been an essential part of his appeal.

The encounters work because O’Brien doesn’t treat his new friends as fools — rather , he revels in the fact that he is the fool. (See his instant-classic appearance on “Hot Ones,” the show where interviews are conducted while the celebrity consumes increasingly acidic chicken wings. Conan rhapsodizes on comedy being all around us as green-yellow mucus drips down his nose.) Of course, there are exceptions made for old friends. Conan goes out for asada in Buenos Aires with the effete and erudite Jordan Schlansky, a longtime producer and frenemy. Schlansky and Conan are the Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon of American cable , and on his TBS show and podcast the two have tangled over Japanese customs, Conan hosting Schlansky’s bachelor party in his own office, and Schlansky hiding an expensive Espresso machine in an inaccessible part of their offices. (As with the Courtney Thorne-Smith segment, Conan’s visceral malice toward Schlansky works because it is so out-of-character).

During the Argentina episode, they get into a fierce argument about the proper pronunciation of the word “tango,” Conan then licks Schlansky’s favorite cut of meat — wait, that came out wrong. After, they go on an ill-fated trip to the Pampas, where both fail spectacularly at gaucho life.

Not everything works. O’Brien does a self-referential bit about the expensive drone he is using on the first show , and for the next four episodes I am distracted every time I see a beautiful shot thinking about the drone’s specifications and capabilities. Some of the stuff goes on a bit long, but so does my writing.

These are minor quibbles. If you’re a Conan fan, you’ll treasure the trips, just like his completists treasure encounters with a masturbating bear. The series ends with Conan tracing his family’s roots in Ireland. He comes across his ancestor’s land, makes a few jokes, but then looks at the land, clearly moved. Conan O’Brien has played the fool long enough; we grant him this moment of humanity with all our hearts.

All four episodes of “Conan O’Brien Must Go” are now available on Max.

Travel Guard® is a global travel insurance provider specializing in plans for leisure and business travelers. Its online travel insurance packages include five options, from basic and last-minute trip coverage to more comprehensive plans. This allows travelers to pick a plan that best matches their situation.

For example, budget-minded travelers might go for the Essential Plan which offers basic protections, such as trip cancellation, interruption and delay insurance, coverage for lost, damaged and delayed baggage, and medical, evacuation and death coverage.

On the other hand, the Deluxe Plan — the most comprehensive option — adds such extras as missed connection coverage, security evacuation, travel inconvenience benefits and more. It also boosts high limits for essential coverages.

Last-minute travelers can opt for the Pack N' Go Plan which only includes certain post-departure coverages. Or, if you travel often, the Annual Plan can cover your trips throughout the year.

Finally, Travel Guard offers "offline" travel insurance packages, meaning you'll have to call if you're looking for a specialty plan.

Coverage types

Depending on the plan, here are the types of protection Travel Guard can include in your package:

Trip cancellations
Trip interruption
Baggage coverage
Baggage delay
Travel medical expenses
Travel inconvenience benefits (reimbursement for such situations as runway delays, cruise diversion and other unforeseen situations)

The provider's website also offers informational resources — here, you can check travel news, read safety tips and find general travel advice. Additionally, the website lets you modify your plan, file a claim and check its status, or apply for a voucher or refund.

As of writing, Travel Guard doesn't offer any discounts. That's common for travel insurance — you're more likely to find deals when shopping for other types of insurance, such as home and auto insurance .

Travel Guard is a portfolio of travel insurance and travel-related services offered by AIG Travel, a member of American International Group (AIG). AIG also offers life insurance and a variety of business insurance products.

Travel Guard makes it easy to get a travel insurance policy customized to your needs. But before you purchase coverage, it's always a good idea to shop around.

For example, if you're going on a cruise, you might want to look at Nationwide Travel Insurance . The provider advertises cruise-specific insurance with three plan options available. This type of coverage is designed with issues unique to cruises in mind — from ship-based breakdowns to missed pre-pard excursions.

If you're planning a more active trip filled with rock climbing or sky diving, Berkshire Hathaway offers the AdrenalineCare® plan which features coverage for unforeseen costs that result from participating in extreme sports on your trip, as well as reimbursement for sporting equipment delay. Pre-existing conditions are covered under this plan (if you meet qualifying conditions).

Review: Waterfront seafood restaurant is like taking a trip to the Polynesian Islands

Dolphin Bar & Shrimp House is one of the first restaurants I visited when we were planning our move to Stuart. We owned a B&B at the time and guests told us to be sure to visit this unique restaurant. We’ve been enjoying it ever since.

The restaurant is part-dining experience and part-museum. Numerous photos and memorabilia reminiscent of Frances Langford, an actress from the golden age are scattered throughout. The Dolphin Bar sits on the treasured spot where, over 60 years ago, Langford was inspired to build The Outrigger Restaurant to resemble the architecture of the Polynesian Islands where she had entertained troops with Bob Hope’s USO tours during WWII.

The outdoor deck surrounds the riverside of the restaurant, and the view is gorgeous. Pelicans and seagulls perch on the pilings and dive for lunch. Sailboats glide in the water. Life is good.

Food reviews: Looking for the best restaurants in town?

The lunch and dinner menus have plenty of fish and seafood items as well as chicken and beef. We recently visited on a Sunday for brunch, when you could order off the menu or choose from the omelet, waffle or egg station. I always enjoy stepping up to the well-stocked salad bar ($19 or $10 with an entrée) and helping myself to an assortment of items on chilled plates.

Dolphin Bar also offers — and this was a first for me — a “Southern Grits Bar” ($18) with traditional and untraditional “fixins” such as bourbon mushrooms, popcorn chicken, and pulled pork BBQ. Do you want a custom bloody mary or mimosa? They also have a bar for that.

One of my dining companions queued up at the omelet station, where she ordered a custom-made omelet stuffed with bacon, tomato, peppers and mozzarella. The omelet was huge and she declared there was a party in her mouth with lots of invited guests.

One of the brunch specials, the St. James smoked salmon ($16) was another guest’s choice. A toasted bagel is accompanied by cold-smoked salmon, hard boiled eggs, diced red onions, capers and cream cheese. A perfectly light and satisfying brunch dish.

The hubby ordered Fred’s Incredible Meatloaf Sandwich ($16) with compliments to Fred, wherever he may be. The deliciously seasoned meatloaf was sliced then seared, rendering a crust. The meat was topped with fried onion straws, creamy melted Provolone cheese, and horseradish sauce — all happily sitting on a brioche bun. His side order was tangy black beans and yellow rice.

My brunch was Pineapple Pina Colada Coconut Fried Shrimp ($21). I have never been to Polynesia, but I imagine this as a perfect island dish. The shrimp was coated with coconut and crispy fried with a creamy, sweet pineapple-coconut sauce that tasted just like a pina colada. I should have asked for a straw. The maduros on the side highlighted the tropical theme.

This restaurant is a treasure. The food is delightful, the service is impeccable, and the panoramic view shouldn’t be missed. “Thanks for the memories.”

4 Best Bahamas Adult-Only All-Inclusive Resorts

I f you’re dreaming of powdery sand beaches, azure waters, and a cool island vibe for your honeymoon or next romantic getaway, the Bahamas won’t disappoint. It’s the ultimate destination for couples who seek to unwind, indulge in some pampering, and rekindle romance. Aside from the spectacular scenery you have in mind, you can enjoy the total experience at some of the best Bahamas adult-only all-inclusive resorts.

The Bahamas, an archipelago of nearly 700 coral islands, lies just off the mainland U.S. coast, only 50 miles south-east of Florida. With round-trip airfare relatively cheap, it’s easier to turn your long-imagined romantic escape into reality. To help you get started, we’ve rounded up some of the best adult-only all-inclusive resorts in the Bahamas.

Sandals Royal Bahamian

Our rating: 9.7.

Ideally situated in the Cable Beach area of Nassau, the island’s capital, the Sandals Royal Bahamian is a fully renovated resort with a rich royal heritage. The property used to be the Balmoral Club, a favorite escape for English monarchs in the 1940s. With an authentic Bahamian vibe, the resort offers 404 rooms and suites in its East Bay and West Bay towers, plus more at the Island Village, a secluded area hugged by lush gardens.

The Sandals Royal Bahamian boasts seven unique pools and 10 dining options while a myriad of activities on land or in the water are on offer. But wait there’s more! You can even embark on an adventure on Sandals Barefoot Cay, just a few minutes away by boat. This off-shore island has two secluded beaches and a chic beach club.

Sandals Emerald Bay

Sandals Emerald Bay is one of the two Bahamas adult-only all-inclusive resorts the leading Caribbean all-inclusive brand has to offer. Moreover, if you’re tired of the concrete jungle and crave tropical breezes and crystal-clear Caribbean water, this resort provides the perfect escape. It’s a 500-acre slice of paradise on one of Exuma’s famously spectacular long beaches with soft, powdery sands.

The luxurious room choices include villas with butler services and sensuous suites with amazing views. Sandals Emerald Bay is also famous for its half-acre zero-entry pool, the largest in the Caribbean, with a central fire pit and a swim-up bar. If you want to have some fun on the greens, you’ll also have access to a world-class golf course designed by the legendary Greg Norman.

Warwick Paradise Island

Our rating: 8.2.

Yet another Bahamas adult-only all-inclusive resort that should be on top of your list is Warwick Paradise Island. Located roughly 12 miles from the international airport in Nassau, this Bahamas adult-only all-inclusive resort for couples is all about luxury and perfection. The modern, chic rooms offer a breathtaking view of the garden and the island. While your room can serve as your home away from home minus the stress of daily living, you’ll enjoy lots more.

Warwick Paradise Island hosts five restaurants serving diverse international cuisines, including Italian, Asian, and fusion dishes. If you want to absorb the island vibe, lounge by the pool or chill at the Harbour Beach. You might also head to the Amber Spa for treatments that are designed to harmonize body and spirit.

Hotel Riu Palace Paradise Island

Our rating: 8.0.

Hotel Riu Palace Paradise Island is one of the best all-inclusive resorts in the Bahamas . It’s located right in the heart of the action on Cabbage Beach. You’ll get the best value for your money when you stay at Hotel Riu Palace, given that resorts nearby charge as much as four times its rate.

The decor of this 14-story high Spanish chain property is colorful and eclectic. The 350-plus rooms all come with walk-in showers, stocked mini-fridges, and a dispenser of popular alcoholic drinks. In terms of dining, your tastebuds will enjoy savoring the dishes served by various on-site restaurants. Plus, you can arrange for special romantic dinners with your partner. There are also two swimming pools, a gym, a spa, and a good list of enticing activities.
