Reaction: We're glad this one just didn't lose very much. It's obviously a very niche film that was never going to be a blockbuster, but it did well on home video - the soundtrack also sold well.
"While there are several fun supporting performances, the film really sits on the shoulders of the two young lead actresses - Cooke and Langford - and that's where the film struggles. Neither of the twins are particularly interesting or likable which makes to tough to care about their troubles." - Michael Van Patten, Slant Magazine
"Sean Baker has improved as a director on each film he's made, and Trip continues the trend. Working from a solid script by Golden Reel winner Chad Taylor, he perfectly evokes the world of Deadhead mania." - Brian Edelstein, Time Out
"Trip is a film that isn't always super focused, but the supporting performances from the likes of Wyatt Russell, Emory Cohen and of course the great Joaquin Phoenix as Jerry Garcia keep the film ever interesting." - Michael Wilmington, Rolling Stone
