Justin Chang New Yorker Its true fascination lies in the humid atmosphere and wanderlust-inspiring splendor of its East and Southeast Asian locations, ranging from Singapore and Bangkok to Shanghai and Rangoon. It’s a movie to get lost in. May 30, 2024 Full Review Chase Hutchinson TheWrap It is a wholly uncompromising experience that dances with mirth and melancholy. Proving to be evocative in one moment and unrelentingly exhausting in the next, it’s as gorgeous to behold visually as it is hard to completely embrace thematically. May 25, 2024 Full Review Jordan Mintzer Hollywood Reporter Grand Tour is not for those who like their movies served up succinctly and without too many digressions. May 24, 2024 Full Review Martin Kudlac ScreenAnarchy A layered and multifaceted work that serves as a heartfelt homage to cinema itself. ... Engaging, meditative, and thought-provoking. ... The film's dynamic oscillates between comedy and melodrama, blending elements of screwball comedy and tragedy alike. Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Zhuo-Ning Su Awards Daily Hypnotically strange and beautiful, Grand Tour travels across borders of time and space, fiction and documentary, reality and dream, and ends on an appropriately poetic note. Jun 12, 2024 Full Review Sarah Manvel Movies We Texted About An epic pan-Asian journey best described as a mash-up of Wisconsin Death Trip and Apocalypse Now.
