The film Joyride is well-written and well-made. It is a unique twist on the genre of road trip movies, with plenty of love, humour, and profanity from the youngsters. Young newcomer charlie Reid gives a remarkable performance under the direction of Emer Reynolds, while Olivia Coleman is just as endearing as ever, albeit in a "unlikeable" character. The idea of the story is fairly appealing, however Ailbhe Keogan's script lacks any scenes that hold the audience's attention for more than a few seconds. In the end, each performance is above average, and the production values are high enough to make the setting seem real. Despite the fact that Joyride falls short of its title, it is nonetheless a good comedy in a year that is laugh-less.

An energetic Irish wake is held in the neighbourhood bar when Mully (Reid) loses his mother. He sings a stirring song in honour of his mother before spotting his father James (Lochlann O'Mearáin) leave the bar. In the end, he didn't go home empty-handed. Mully immediately steals the funds after questioning his father's motives for stealing the funds raised for the funeral of his deceased wife. He walks up to any open car door and jumps inside without having any sort of plan. He discovers Joy (Olivia Colman) and her child dozing off in the backseat. Until he goes well outside the town limits, they are still asleep. After a somewhat rocky beginning, the three agree to a truce that will benefit them both: she won't call the police as long as they drive to a location of her choice.

The colour scheme and colour grade of Joyride are the film's prominent visual elements. The outfits, from Colman's vivid yellow jacket to a procession of mask-wearing individuals, have a manner of practically exploding off the screen. Unabashedly, there is a huge infant head in this movie. Joyride decides to go full force even in places when one wouldn't think to heighten the colouring, and it works. The flowers in the flower shop are bursting with pink and lavender, while the bright red bags of chips and the bright green sticks of gum at the convenience store stand out as much as they can.

Despite having its moments, Joyride is just an ordinary dramedy. Although the filmmaking is not particularly innovative, the colours truly do pop out in most situations, and the cast is hilarious and sympathetic. Joyride has heart and provides a few good laughs, but it falls short of its potential.
