Product Description
AWAY WE GO (BLU RAY) (ENG SDH/SPAN/FREN/DTS-HD)
Amazon.com
Away We Go has an incredible mix of ingredients: A script co-written by Dave Eggers (author of A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius), directed by Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Revolutionary Road), starring the not-hugely-famous-but-always-excellent Maya Rudolph (Saturday Night Live) and John Krasinski (The Office), and featuring an astounding supporting cast that includes Catherine O’Hara, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jeff Daniels, Allison Janney, Jim Gaffigan, and more. What’s even more incredible is that all these ingredients blend together into a truly marvelous but very non-traditional romantic comedy. For one thing, Burt (Krasinski) and Verona (Rudolph) are already a couple and expecting their first child. What they don’t know is where they’re going to live--so they set off on a tour of disparate locations (Tucson, Montreal, Miami) where they have friends or relatives, sampling not only different cities and climates but also different families. The social and emotional collisions that follow are sometimes very funny and sometimes heartwrenching. Away We Go starts quietly and, through subtle yet consistently delightful scenes, builds to a surprisingly potent end. This is a gem of a movie, not to be missed. --Bret Fetzer

 Refreshing and fun movie! February 11, 2010
deathbyargyle (Maryland)
This is a really light hearted and fun comedy that is a refreshing twist to a romantic comedy. Buy it!
 Cute, but tedious February 7, 2010
R. Grove (Virginia)
The story of two people on a journey to find their home is poignant and familiar to most of us - we've all looked for a home at one time. The lead characters give viewers an interesting take on this search, but the remaining ones are exaggerated and uninteresting stereotypes (far-out college professor, loud-mouth redneck, etc.) who contribute nothing original to the story. Overall the movie is just tedious and I found myself hoping that it would end sooner rather than later.

Amy Girardi
This movie was amazing. The acting is incredible and the script is extremely well written. John Krasinski and Maya Rudolf are perfect in their roles, making the audience want to be their best friends. I recommend this movie wholeheartedly for anyone who wants to remember what home and love really are. The dynamic between the two main characters is priceless! SO well done.
A story of discovery February 3, 2010
J. Bailey (AZ)
I see a lot of movies & many are rote. Away We Go is a sparkling gem buried under all the big name movies. It is a quiet, quirky & artistic tale of finding yourself, your place in the world & home. Loved it!
Great film, DVD extas not as great! February 1, 2010
A. Clark (Columbus, OH)
I absolutely love "Away We Go" the film. It is fantastic! The directing of Sam Mendes and the acting of John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph as well as the supporting cast was absolutely fantastic. The story is rather original and approached in a completely organic way. I fully recommend it to almost anyone. However, if you are invested in DVD extras (as I am) you may be slightly disappointed. Other than an okay commentary, the extras doesn't offer much. There is a vignette about "green film-making" which is FANTASTIC and serves a great lesson to all studios/actors/directors, but after that and the commentary, it ends there. But the movie cannot have enough great things said about it!
