The Trip to Greece

DELIGHTED: The Trip to Greece, the fourth installment in the brilliant Steve Coogan/Rob Brydon franchise, is out today:

But if you come for the gorgeous food and landscapes, you stay for the quick-witted banter and the virtuoso celebrity impersonations. As usual, Coogan and Brydon live to perform, and their never-ending one-upsmanship is what makes them such enjoyable, if also exhausting, company.

Coogan, the BAFTA-winning actor from movies like Philomena and Stan & Ollie, is the bigger star of the two, and therefore the bigger target. Brydon, a saucy sidekick, clearly enjoys puncturing his friend's thin skin. At one point, he flatters Coogan by telling him he's starting to look like Richard Gere, then turns around and dings him for lapping up the compliment.

NOT DELIGHTED: while it's available to rent on Amazon or iTunes, you can't buy it yet. And as a man of discerning tastes who owns the previous three, I will wait. Grrrrrrrr.
