When Burt's parents announce that they are moving out of the country, Burt and Verona realize that they have no commitments to stay where they are living.

Reviews
"...a lighthearted road trip movie that celebrates the importance of family while delivering a few laughs and maybe a tear or two."—James Berardinelli, ReelviewsThe Hollywood Reporter: Away We Go Film Review(May 22, 2009)"Burt and Verona are two characters rarely seen in the movies: thirtysomething, educated, healthy, self-employed, gentle, thoughtful, whimsical, not neurotic and really truly in love. Their great concern is finding the best place and way to raise their child, who is a bun still in the oven...Sam Mendes’ 'Away We Go' is a film for nice people to see."—Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun-TimesThe Chicago Sun-Times: Roger Ebert Away We Go film review(June 10, 2009)
