A Walk in the Woods serves as a terrific showcase for two exceptionally durable stars.

It is funny, and Redford, gracious as ever, makes a wonderful straight-man for a comic co-costar who has the face, voice and posture of a geezer who probably should have tackled this healing hike 20 years earlier.

It’s pleasant enough cinematic comfort food, but even so, you may be hungry again soon afterward.

Chicago Sun-Times
A middling sitcom.

A Walk in the Woods is a trifle compared to 2014's Wild, which tracked a similar real-life journey toward self-discovery in richer detail. But darned if Redford's easy charm and Nolte's gravelly lack of it aren't enticing throughout.
