As our Joy Ride Blu-ray review explains, it is a great example of how comedies can still make us laugh while telling a touching story too.
“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 business trip to Asia goes sideways, she enlists the aid of Lolo , her irreverent childhood best friend who also happens to be a hot mess; Kat , her college friend turned Chinese soap star; and Deadeye , Lolo’s eccentric cousin,” says the synopsis.
While there are some great supporting performances from Baron Davis and Daniel Dae Kim, it’s the chemistry of the core cast that makes Joy Ride so fun. While Park mostly plays the straight woman — which makes it all the more fun when her wild side comes out — it’s the over-the-top nature of Cola and Hsu’s characters that get to have a ton of fun from start to finish. From vagina tattoos to penis art, nothing is deemed too raunchy to be covered and it all delivers some hearty laughs.
Joy Ride comes with quite a few worthwhile special features, with around 30 minutes of intriguing featurettes going into the creative process. Beyond the cast, we get to hear from director Adele Lim, the screenwriters, and producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg. There are a lot of great stories shared, such as how they never thought the movie was going to get made while writing it. The included footage shows how much fun the cast had while making it.
