Following an already established and predictable formula leaves little to the imagination for this comedy. That does not mean the film is without laughs. The first half of the film is pure hilarity and it is only when Joy Ride changes lanes in tone that it loses its ability to be a next-tier comedy. Still worth a watch, as these four ladies work well together and the fun comes across on screen. -Steve Titcomb (Twitter: @Steves_brainbox)
