Joy Ride Reviews

Apr 2, 2025

I don't like characters in this movie especially when there are so many great movies close to this theme for example The Hitcher, Duel.

What really got me was the story and its depictions of the challenges that Asian Americans go through in connecting with their "home country". As the child of both immigrants and 3 generations of Asian American AND the sibling of an adoptee, I can't even begin to describe how many boxes this movie checked for me on a personal level.

The characters are so annoying that I don't feel thrilled in this film. The two brothers are unlikable jerks.

Good Revenge Thriller.... When you mess with the mentally deranged, you pay the price..... Loved the Voice of the Wacko Ted Levine, He was Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs...

Joy Ride (2001) delivers an engaging start with a suspenseful and thrilling first act, but it loses its edge as the story progresses. Paul Walker shines as Lewis, grounding the film with a solid performance, while Steve Zahn’s portrayal of Fuller occasionally feels over the top. The suspense and tension are well-executed for much of the film, keeping viewers on edge, but the final act doesn’t live up to the buildup. The ending feels rushed and lacks the punch needed to leave a lasting impression. While entertaining, the movie falls short of its full potential with a script that could have used a stronger conclusion.

Just OK, If you're high ............... Way predictable, ridiculous acting and save yourself the 90 minutes ...................

Joy Ride is a fun, no fluff, early 2000's thriller.

This was a real popcorn thriller. Steve Zahn is great as the wussy Fuller, and I just couldn't wait for him to get his comeuppance.

Joy ride or Roadkill in the UK proves to be a worthy movie but only when they are on the road the rest can be boring but it's still an awesome film.

An ok thriller movie where two brothers on the road did a prank on the wrong guy who begins chasing them down with his truck. Very slow until you get the the action and even then you want to get through it fast as possible to get through its boring and predictable story.

Pretty decent.Maybe not the best acting and best Movie ever made.You can pretty much tell what's going to happen every step of the way... but not bad

It was pretty entertaining but there were just too many unrealistic occurrences. Watch it if there's nothing else on.

Pretty good actually. Some horror. Not too much though. Has a usual horror movie ending. Almost for sure will never see this movie again, but it was worth a watch.

Muy buena película, una cinta muy tensa que me sorprendió mucho. Esta es una película que desde el primer momento te mantiene enganchado, ya que arranca rápido y a los 15 minutos comienza a ponerse todavía mejor. La historia es algo simple, pero maneja muy bien los momentos de suspenso, generando escenas muy tensas en muchas partes de la cinta; esto sin dudas me parece de lo mejor que tiene la película. Los personajes son geniales, podes empatizar con todos y no son los típicos adolescentes de una cinta de terror/suspenso. Por otro lado, las actuaciones me parecen excelentes, principalmente las de Steve Zahn, Paul Walker y Leelee Sobieski. Si hay algo que no me gusto es lo poco que se explica del personaje del camionero, ya que no es común que se tome así de mal la broma que le hacen, además de que su camión es literalmente una bestia que arrasa con todo lo que choca. Por ultimo, destacar los efectos, ya que están bastante bien logrados. En conclusión, una muy buena película, una cinta que logra mantener al espectador entretenido debido a su atrapante historia, junto con escenas tensas muy bien logradas y un cast excelente. La recomiendo.

I couldn't watch it. Those brother were DUMB every step of the way!

I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. Simple premise, very straightforward story that had lots of Intense suspenseful scenes that keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time. Something that started off as benign joke between two brothers turns in a nightmare quick. I think the two leads did pretty good job & it's a distance amount of character development where you get invested just enough to genuinely care about what happens to them. (Lewis) is the younger brother but yet more mature & level headed as the older brother (fuller) inferior irrational one who seems like he's struggling to get his life together. The common misconception is that with age comes a level of maturity but that's not the case, But I love his enthusiasm through out the whole film & he had some non-intentional funny moments. I think the movies does a great job at not fully revealing the man identity in the truck, pretty much keeping it a mystery which adds to the eeriness.

Huge disappointment. Cheap raunchy jokes and a tired old plot.

A lot of fun. They went there. As good as Bridesmaids and the Hangover.
