Summary: Joy Riding is dangerous territory
Review: WHAT A MOVIE! If anyone wants suspense, this is the movie for you. Leelee Sobieski is beautiful and sexy, too. That's another reason to escape life for 1 hour and 40 minutes. Go see this rollercoaster ride of terror. You won't regret it.

Summary: Joy Ride is as good as "Duel" and "Hitcher" !!!
Review: WhenI first saw the Trailer for Joy Ride I thought it was going to be another slasher-film where there's a psycho guy going aroung gutting everybody. But it wasn't. Joy Ride is a well-acted movie with a good plot. It's an unique Thriller. Paul Walker, Steve Zahn, LeeLee Sobieski do a great job of acting. This movie has a lot of parts that will make you jump. Overall this is just an awesome movie. One of my favourites movies of all time.

Summary: Never mess around with psychotic truck drivers...
Review: This movie was total freakishness. It was a disturbing, believable account of two prankster brothers who are forced to learn a lesson that they will never forget. The acting was wonderful, the direction was great, and the story and plot were totally convinving and were not too drawn out. Not your typical Thriller or the typical Teen-Slasher-Movie like "Scream" or "Urban Legend". The end will send chills down your spine!

Summary: Scary-and-Funny-Movie, amazing actors !!!
Review: Part of the success goes the convincing characters, each played by actors who give equally convincing performances. Steve Zahn, Leelee Sobieski and Paul Walker each have a wonderful knack for playing themselves as upbeat and carefreee one moment, and completely frightened the next. Zahn is particularly effective, providing much of the movie's laughs, while at the same time imstilling in Fuller a sense of sherr terror. Sobieski has less onscreen time than her two costars, but manages to turn in a well-rounded performance that fits the story well.None of these attributes diminish once it's time for the big showdown in the end. Up to and right past this point, everything moves quite rapidly and effectively, building us up for an ending that doesn't disappoint, and lives up to the standard set by the plot before it. The plot is full of suspense and energy, and the cast is, among other things, believable. The title is a perfect description of the film itself, which, in this humble critic's opinion, is one of the year's best films.
P.S.: The voice from 'Rusty Nail' is from Ted Levine, who played in 'The Silence of the Lambs'.

Summary: Steve Zahn is sooooo funny ..... and sooooo HOT!!!
Review: I bought the DVD, because I love Steve Zahn. Wow! That restaurant scene was great. Always when he opened his mouth I laughed because his jokes are very very funny. And then I heared the audio commentary from Steve and it was soooooo funny, too. I think he is funnier than Seann William Scott or Adam Sandler, and that say much.
Leelee Sobieski is my favourite actress next to Reese Witherspoon. And Paul Walker is typical great. Zahn/Sobieski/Walker are 3 great Youngactors. Ok, the movie is very suspensful and scary, sometimes funny. Overall this movie was pretty good, and I am definitely looking forward to a sequal(hopefully).

Summary: Scariest Movie ALIVE !!
Review: Joy Ride represents the metaphorical zenith what a thriller should deliver on a regular basis. Instead of providing the audience with overabundat gore and exceedingly outrageous cleavage and nudity, why not just tell a comprehensively sound story that amuses with ingenuity rather than excess. Charged with indulgently clever shrewdness in its presentation, Joy Ride demonstrates acutely the rather sparkling joys of suspensful storytelling that as of late continue to be ignored by a majority of the Hollywood establishment.

Summary: Thoroughly enjoyable!
Review: I avoided this in the cinema here in the UK (where the film was renamed 'RoadKill') based on the lame efforts of a film called Jeepers Creepers. I then started to hear good things about it from people who did watch it. I finally got hold of it on DVD and I must say JoyRide is a thoroughly enjoyable film, although it does have its flaws (which are so minor I won't go into them). The director's use of lighting and subtle shooting techniques really help you believe the main characters are stranded in the middle of nowhere with a killer stalking them. The DVD is superb - 4 endings (The original being the best, which was sadly cut from the final release). There is also directors commentary, a featurette and voice auditions for Rusty Nail. If you are sick of corny and disappointing horror/thriller films such as Jeepers Creepers and the like, get thus - it is a genuine delight to find such a film.

Summary: So bad it's almost good
Review: This DVD ought to be taught in film school as a lesson in making bad movies. The list of extras alone is instructive: the DVD includes not one, not two, but FOUR alternate endings. The disk also features a ridiculous number of commentaries for a film of this kind, and they're alternately telling and absurd. (Example: Leelee Sobieski talking about how particular Stanley Kubrick was about his orange juice. The poor guy must be spinning in his grave.) Storywise, the film depends on a series on contrivances starting with a refundable airline ticket and the nonsensical purchase of a CB radio. It's conventional thrills are seldom particularly thrilling, and a villain who might have been scary instead seems to have super powers of the Michael Myers/Jason/Freddy Krueger variety. There's one effective scene early on as the brothers played by Weller and Zahn put their ears to a motel room wall and hear the first consequences of their practical joking, but the rest of the movie is utterly predictable and, again, contrived. When the principles end up in a Nebraska cornfield, you can practically hear the writer(s) saying "Wouldn't it be cool if they ended up in a cornfield?" (Getting them there turns out to be more difficult than perhaps anticipated.) Then there's the climactic motel room trap: "Don't open the door! No, don't open the door! No, you don't open the door either!" Inept and unscary, "Joy Ride" is ripe for mockery and thus merits a couple of stars.

Summary: Finally Found It!
Review: At last after searching the internet for days I have found 'Joy Ride' little did I know it had changed it's name! I was looking for 'Road Kill' of which here in the UK it was called. But I am glad I searched a little harder as this film is fantastic. The plot, storyline and action are first class. From start to finish this movie draws you in, fast paced and in your face. 'Rusty Nail' is the ultimate psycho and will stop at nothing to kill.....Buy this movie as it is well worth a place in your collection!
