Review by: Peter Bradshaw - The Guardian
Laughs, high energy levels and some outrageous set pieces make this examination of the complex relationship with distant family a fun journey of self-discovery.

Review by: Richard Roeper - The Chicago Sun-Times
Asian American women dominate an outstanding cast of this sometimes moving, sometimes hilarious road trip comedy. The year's funniest movie.

Review by: Monica Castillo - Roger Ebert's website
While not everything in “Joy Ride” comes together smoothly, Lim’s movie is plenty of messy fun. It's mostly lighthearted but occasionally profound in what it says about identity and friendships.

The movie’s good and thirsty, and while many of the jokes push their luck, the movie doesn’t have a mean bone in its body.

Sex, drugs, profanity, penises, puke, poop, the use of “party” as a verb — Joy Ride embraces these reliable gross-out-comedy standbys with a gleeful sense of gusto. It’s also out to prove that you can make something novel without reducing it to being a novelty.

Hilariously daring, deeply moving, and stereotype-busting in equal measure, “Joy Ride” is also the raunchiest movie to most likely to make you shed a tear.

“Joy Ride” feels like it easily could have been better, but it’s certainly good enough, and it might be remembered as an early milestone in some significant careers.

Review by: Peter Travers - ABC News
"Joy Ride" delivers on the promise of its rowdy title while taking us to emotional corners that lazy joke machines prefer to skip. This you don't want to miss.
