With no real redemption at the end of the road, it is nothing more than a beautiful, empty journey.

Were it not for a sentimental resolution that explains way more about Cal than does the movie or the character any good, Freundlich's World Traveler might have been one of the more daring and surprising American movies of the year.
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star

This episodic, quietly affecting movie is both gritty and poetic.
Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel

Well-made, well-acted but ultimately enervating.
