Ride along is an action comedy of a feeble guard; Ben who tries to play the real man in order to get James approval to marry his sister. Starring Kevin Hart and Ice Cube.
This routine buddy picture offers plenty of instant gratification (Cube and Hart are easygoing screen presences, and many of their one-liners are funny) but shows little concern for characterization, storytelling, or even comic pacing.
[Leads] off with the most poorly shot and edited chase scene in recent memory... so spatially confusing that it might as well have been shot through a kaleidoscope.
