'Per il suo stile tout court che ci fa ricordare con dolce nostalgia i vecchi maestri d'animazione d'avanguardia, una forma di cinema sperimentale alla ricerca dell'essenzialità della forma. Un film che riesce a trasmettere la curiosità e il senso della scoperta, elementi fondamentali del viaggio e in cui la spontaneità e giocosità delle composizioni sono in perfetta sintonia con lo spirito on the Road!
