Micransix Crappy film
Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
jstandhaven25 My expectations weren't very high before watching this movie, and it lived up to this. Poor acting throughout and a storyline that was very predictable. If you just want an easy watch, with a few laughs then this movie is for you.
moviewizguy Choosing which college to attend can be the most exciting and thrilling time of a young woman's life...unless your overprotective father isn't quite ready to let you go. In this family comedy, Melanie is eagerly looking forward to her first big step towards independence when she plans a girls only road trip to check out prospective universities. But when her overbearing police chief father insists on escorting her instead, she soon finds her dream trip has turned into a nightmare adventure full of comical misfortune and turmoil.Let's face it: I liked the movie a lot. I expected to have a good time while watching this movie and the film exceeded my expectations. To be honest, this is the first movie in quite awhile that has never made me laugh so much! Not even "Superbad" was funny to laugh out loud as much as I did here!And I'm speaking of the truth. I really enjoyed the film. It was hilarious and probably because things aren't meant to be taken seriously nor literally. Almost every character in here goes over the top. Each character tries so hard to make people laughed that it, at least, worked for me!I was won over by most of the characters in here, especially the pig. Raven-Symoné and Martin Lawrence both have a great time here, as well as many cameos. The jokes are childish but who cares. It's a movie for the family. What did you expect?! With all the laughs, there are also a few sweet moments in here that would make you choke. Overall, if you're expecting something thought provoking or comedic genius, this movie is not for you. For others who want to have a fun time with their family for a mere 80 minutes, this movie sure will entertain the HELL out of you and I'm not being sarcastic. I had the time of my life with this movie and if you're not a cold-hearted cynical person, you could too!
Rajiv Krishnan Kozhikode Those of you who have rated this movie low seriously meet your psychiatrist. You certainly have a problem with your humor gene. It is a cool movie. Over protective parents is a majority phenomenon. In other words, a large portion of planet earth has over protective parents and this is a good non-exaggerative portrayal of such a phenomenon. In my hood, all my neighbors were like this and even my parents had some elements of over protectiveness. I was embarrassed by it on a number of occasions, but I certainly do cherish those memories of over protection, thought I don't endorse it. People, just lighten up! It is a movie that every college aspirant and every parent of a college aspirant should watch. THose who are out of college would certainly enjoy it too.
Dragoneyed363 I honestly don't see what the big fuss over College Road Trip is. It wasn't a bad movie, in my opinion. It was actually really lovable, and even though it was certainly mediocre most of the time, and I felt as if at some parts they tried too hard to please the audience with mediocre jokes, it was still very entertaining, and contained a pretty good amount of laughable, and that's laughable in the humorous way, material.It was also nice seeing Raven Symone in this movie, because I am always used to seeing her in what she's famous for, That's So Raven, and it was enlightening to know she played a role, because I love her in that show. Also, even though Martin Lawrence isn't one of the best actors, and definitely isn't one of my favorites, he's not a terrible one, and if you ask me everyone in this movie could act well for their roles, to some extent. There were scenes where I felt as if the antics were outdated and some lines were just not pulled off to the best of the casts' abilities, but when it was over I ended up having fun with it, and that's what it was meant to be in the first place.It was of course no masterpiece, and it could have been handled a lot more professionally than it was, but doesn't a ton of movies fall under those categories, and yet, many people enjoy them. Overall, it was a good little movie, that isn't as horrible as the rating and negative comments let on to be, so if you're any bit interested in seeing this movie, go ahead, because it wasn't bad or disappointing at all.
