Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Even with a brief running time, 'College Road Trip' is an ordeal that even its target audience will find dispiritingly lame.
It is genuinely, consistently, indisputably putrid.
The comedian Sinbad once said that Hollywood seeks out original talents but then tries to make them just like everyone else. A case in point is Martin Lawrence.
It's a dark day indeed when a movie's funniest moments involve Donny Osmond.
