     College Road Trip
2008  G  COMEDY  1h 22min
CAST— Martin Lawrence, Raven-Symone
MUSIC— Edward Shearmur  DIRECTOR— Roger Kumble

     If you’re in the mood for juvenile comedy, horrible acting, and lots of screaming, this may be for you. Martin Lawrence and Raven-Symone star in this inane attempt at comedy. She is college bound, ready to leave home and continue her academic career. He’s an insanely protective father, determined not to let his baby slip through his fingers. He decides to turn her college road trip into a loving, father-daughter bonding experience. But as is often the case in road trip comedies (Planes, Trains, and Automobiles [1987], Johnson Family Vacation [2004]) disaster strikes. Anything and everything becomes a hideous misadventure as they journey to the college of her choice. Disney here takes the road not taken by starring Lawrence in a G-rated family comedy, but this misfire takes a shortcut into a truly mirthless journey through the muck. They should have stayed home.
