Reviewer notes

Not recommendedTrusted family reviewers
A mundane watch. Martin Lawrence and Raven-Symoné stop <em>'College Road Trip'</em> from falling towards the bottom tier of Disney, but they are the only plus points in what is a very poor film. The quality of the comedy is awful, despite one or two extremely minor chuckles. They also try to shoehorn a hearty narrative at the end, which unsurprisingly doesn't land. Best avoided.
