Road trip movies have one thing in common -- the concept of getting there. Perhaps that's why I get antsy; awaiting the delayed arrival, most of the movie seems ... well, pending. You might not expect ...read the complete Out-of-Towners movie review at Hollywood Report Card (Ross Anthony)

If it worked once before, why not try it again? That seems to be the motto behind the new comedy, The Out-of-Towners. Not only is it reuniting Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn (who worked wonderfully in Housesitter), but the project bringing them back ...read the complete Out-of-Towners movie review at Cinematter (Matt Williams)

Hollywood's remaking Neil Simon movies now, and not exactly the best of the bunch. What Did they run out of TV shows (No, just creativity). Expect Goodbye Girl 2000 with Jim Carrey and Michelle Pfeiffer any day now. ... but for now, Steve Martin ...read the complete Out-of-Towners movie review at Film Threat, Hollywood's Indie Voice

Desperate for a good time in the theater, I chose what appeared to be a sure thing. A remake of a film that I enjoyed years ago, this time staring Steve Martin, Goldie Hawn and John Cleese. All personal favorites. How could it go wrong?I don't know how, ...read the complete Out-of-Towners movie review at Michael Redman

``The Out-of-Towners'' jogs doggedly on the treadmill of comedy, working up a sweat but not getting much of anywhere. It's a remake of the 1970 Neil Simon screenplay, with Steve Martin and ...read the complete Out-of-Towners movie review at Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

The 1970 version of The Out-of-Towners, starring Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis, was an amusing-but-slight motion picture. The 1999 remake, featuring Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn, retains the second half of that hyphenated adjective while losing the first p ...read the complete Out-of-Towners movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)
