Rolling Stone -
Rudolph, a comic force on "SNL," can speak volumes with the tilt of an eyebrow. She and Krasinski, of "The Office," are absolutely extraordinary. Ditto the film, which sneaks up and floors you.

The A.V. Club -
Though Away We Go lacks the screwball unpredictability of something like "Flirting With Disaster," it compensates with a unexpected depth of feeling, a novelist’s (or memoirist’s) sense of detail, and a panoramic view of what home means.

The New Yorker -
Some of the episodes are ripely satirical, others almost heartbreaking. Allison Janney appears as a coarse drunk who taunts her kids; Maggie Gyllenhaal is a pushy New Age mom whose aggressive virtue saps the strength of everyone around her.

ReelViews -
Away We Go is not as dramatically wrenching as "Revolutionary Road," but it's unquestionably more enjoyable.

Entertainment Weekly -
A gilded entry in the cinema du quirk. It's a movie that invites you, all too often, to feel superior to the people on screen.
