This is an incredibly brilliant movie, from the acting and directing, to the beautiful scenery of Wales. It could have been cheesy, but instead is thoughtful and insightful, with some great humor mixed in. There's a great cameo scene with Hugh Bonneville ... so very different from his Downton Abbey character.
However, the movie was very painful to watch -- anyone who has ever done a "last trip" will understand why; even the "good" last trips hurt. But I'm extremely glad I watched it.
Be prepared to laugh and cry; to feel exhilarated, angry, and frustrated -- all at once.
No spoilers here ... just my opinion that it's a fantastic movie and well-worth watching.
