After having watched Benicio Del Toro in some brilliant and engrossing roles, i decided id give 'Joyride' a watch. Toby Maguire isn't one of my favourite actors, and I've often found him to be a fairly boring, and in the hands of a movie such as this, Maguire is stretched far beyond his limits. The story is laughable for all the wrong reasons, and the movie plods on and on, without many scenes of any real depth. Del Toro is also slacking, mostly mumbling his way through the terrible script. As if all this wasn't bad enough, the movies production and soundtrack kill what little merit 'Joyride' had. I've tried to think of some good points to raise, but upon reflection, there are non.

3/10

I must admit i wasn't expecting much from 'The Killer's', even having read the claims on the UK front cover that it's of the same ilk as 'Natural Born Killers'. The script and acting range from poor, to dismal, to unbearable. The brother's relationship is far from clear, and what vague story line there is, is so badly pieced together, that often times in the movie your sure you've missed something, you cling on in the hope that a clever twist of plot will ensue, but in fact it all falls apart in quite spectacular fashion. The basis of a cult movie are there, but sadly unrealised, id miss this if you possibly can.
