Watch: The Trip to Spain 2017 123movies, Full Movie Online – Due to the success of the first two trips to Northern England and Italy, the Guardian, this time in conjunction with the New York Times, asks Steve Coogan to write restaurant reviews from another week long trip, this time through Spain. Rob Brydon, Steve’s companion on the other two trips, is already aware of the trip, and agrees to go in favoring it over the alternative. Beyond Steve’s planned itinerary which will take them south through the center of the country to mirror a trip he did when he was eighteen, they will necessarily embark on some Don Quixote/ Sancho Panza escapades due in part to the current Terry Gilliam movie project on the pair. Like the other two trips, Steve and Rob are accompanied by a plethora of celebrities, from Mick Jagger to Michael Caine to Hugh Grant to a pair of Bonds in the form of their impersonations, but unlike those other two trips, both seem centered and grounded in all aspects of their lives. Rob is settled in his life as loving husband to Sally and father to Chloe and Charlie, while Steve is riding a high with a pair of recent Oscar nominations, being in a committed albeit long distance relationship with New York based Mischa, and having a renewed relationship with his now twenty year old son Jonathan, who will join him at the end of the trip in southern Spain. As the trip progresses, Steve ends up quietly having to deal with crisis after crisis in both his professional and personal life..
Plot: Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon embark on a road trip along the coast of Spain.

Third in a series. Doesn’t hit on all cylinders but when it does, it’s great
This is the third movie in a series of road trips by funny man Steve Coogan and his sidekick Rob Brydon. I still recall the second movie, “The Trip to Italy,” which shares the same premise: two semi-famous British entertainers eat their way through a country while entertaining each other with scripted and improvisational banter and comedy. “The Trip to Spain” echoes the last movie except the scenes are in Spain and the language being spoken is Spanish.It seems to me that there’s a lot more involvement with people playing Coogan’s and Brydon’s families and love interests in this third movie and for me, this pierces the bubble of the movie’s conceit. Coogan calls his married lover in New York and a camera just happens to be there to capture her end of the call? If that part isn’t unscripted, then the whole movie is scripted with perhaps some improvisation. So when Coogan and Brydon entertain each other with endless facts about the towns they’re visiting, they’re not being erudite, they’re reciting scripted lines. Some of the overlong imitations of Marlon Brando, Mick Jagger, Sean Connery, and particularly Roger Moore–those are likely to be improvisational.
In all, this is a pleasant movie and the Spanish scenery and architecture steal the show and are probably worth the price of admission alone. The bit about food and reviewing restaurants seems muted and subdued in this film compared to the last one.
The ending however, deserves to live on the cutting room floor. (Again, that’s my opinion.) I’ll leave it to you to decide on that one.
Enjoyable Romp
There’s a lot to like about this movie: it’s sense of humor, it’s appreciation of culture and cuisine, the way the characters play off each other, but it’s also not a film I would fault anybody for not liking. There are times when Coogan and Brydon’s dialogue should’ve been trimmed, where gags went on too long, but overall, the experience of dinning with them as they travel across Spain was remarkably enjoyable. I enjoyed this enough to make a point to watch “The Trip to Italy”, though when that’ll happen, I can’t really say. If you like Coogan, Brydon, food, or travel, this film is a good way to spend an hour and forty-five minutes. F
