It's a sturdy directorial job for a difficult movie; one that wants to spread the idea of travel as the ultimate cotton swab of life, but also engages in good times to keep the less spiritually open audience members awake.
Reviews for The Art of Travel
Travel is an ambitious, involving and extensive travelogue that challenges the imagination. [A] feasible fable that allows one to remain contemplative and connected
Overacted and overblown, pic will underwhelm commercially, with theatrical perhaps limited to friends and family.
...director Thomas Whelan embraces the wanderlust spirit in this enjoyable if uneven film, whose qualities often reflect the television background of most of its cast.
The use of such locales as Bolivia, Nicaragua, Panama and Peru adds to the exotic flavor of the film.
Part The Graduate, part Fitzcarraldo, The Art of Travel is a tribute to living on the road less traveled. Filmed entirely on location, it offers a more rounded portrayal of culture outside of the standard Hollywood clichés
It's too bad that there isn't a documentary about the making of The Art of Travel since that would undoubtedly make for an interesting movie.
