If you loved 24 Hour Party People, try The Trip

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

What The Trip is

Steve Coogan gets roped into restaurant reviews, only to discover his girlfriend isn’t joining him. His reluctant accomplice? Rob Brydon, whose competitive spirit proves just as hard to digest as the tasting menus. What starts as a lark becomes a grudgingly charming study in male friendship.
