The hilarious and unapologetically explicit story of identity and self-discovery centers on four unlikely friends who embark on a once-in-a-lifetime international adventure. When Audrey’s (Ashley Park) business trip to Asia goes sideways, she enlists the aid of Lolo (Sherry Cola), her irreverent, childhood best friend who also happens to be a hot mess; Kat (Stephanie Hsu), her college friend turned Chinese soap star; and Deadeye (Sabrina Wu), Lolo’s eccentric cousin. Their no-holds-barred, epic experience becomes a journey of bonding, friendship, belonging, and wild debauchery that reveals the universal truth of what it means to know and love who you are.​

Probably the funniest film I'll watch all year. But the film has enough heart and is a nice commentary on cultural identity. 👍🏽

PRAISE: Joy Ride joins No Hard Feelings in this new era of Women behaving badly movies. This story about Audrey who's business trip to Asia goes sideways,enlists the help of Lolo, her childhood best friend, Kat, a college friend, and Deadeye, Lolo's eccentric cousin. Of course nothing goes as planned and it's a crazy,gross out,sex filled ride with a lot of heart.This comedy leans hard on it's Rating
Sometimes comedies like this can get it all wrong and go to over the top but i think Joy Ride ends up somewhere right in the middle but the cast including Ashley Park, Sherry Cola, Stephanie Hsu, Sabrina Wu
all turn in game for anything and enthusiastic performances. Even with all of the sight gags and raunchiness the movie manages to squeeze in some celebrations of asian culture.Definitely some solid laugh out loud moments.


PROBLEMS: Some scenes feel and fall flat.As soon as i saw a character it was extremely predictable on how the scene the character was in would play out. At times it seems the writers forgot what they were going for. There is a been there done that feel to how some things play out that definitely reminded me of some of the same story threads that were in comedies like Bridesmaids and Girls Trip.

Scale of 1 to 10 a 7½
