It's like an emotional roller coaster and sometimes I can't tell if they're going backwards in time or forwards! Audrey Hepburn is great but other than that it's just a long road trip of a high class married couple with problems.... Full review

This is the best exploration of a relationship. In juxtaposed editing the years of marriage between a man & a women disintegrate before our eyes. Hepburn & Finney were never as charming, beautiful & powerful as in this film. Frederic Raphael... Full review

DVD Talk
Fox's Studio Classics disc of Two for the Road looks splendid.
Christopher Challis' cinematography must have stimulated French tourism, and Henry Mancini's lush but unobtrusive score is very pleasant.

While critics did nip-ups over Stanley Donen's "revolutionary" nonlinear story-telling techniques, audiences responded to the chemistry between Audrey Hepburn and Albert Finney, not to mention the unforgettable musical score by Henry Mancini.
In preparing his romantic comedy Two For the Road, director Stanley Donen decided to utilize many of the cinematic techniques popularized by the French "nouvelle vague" filmmakers.

Combustible Celluloid
And unlike many other movies of the period, the slapstick in Two for the Road has somehow aged well, perhaps because it always comes as a welcome break.
Rafael earned the film's lone nomination for his screenplay, and would go on to write a similarly effective film about a marriage in crisis, Eyes Wide Shut (1999).

While not overtly flawed, the stereo soundtrack of Two for the Road appeared less strong.
An exercise in non-linear story telling, the framework of Two for the Road offers its most memorable element.
Music brightened up the audio somewhat.
