Joyride (2022). Joyride: Directed by Emer Reynolds. With Olivia Colman, Olwen Fouéré, David Pearse, Aislín McGuckin. Follows Joy, a train-wreck on an adventure who is ready to give away her new-born baby. Joined by a cheeky street urchin, they are two diamonds in the rough on the run.
“A mediocre coming of age drama which shows the turmoil of unconventional family life through rural Ireland. Good acting from the leads, especially the scenes with Colman struggling to bond with her baby, but the story is told rather messily and the film is uneven, rushing initially and dragging in the final act. Some of the imagery is good, others is just plain weird and itu0026#39;s not particularly clear what story it wants to tell.”
