Rating: 3/4 -- "Ride" gratifyingly follows the currents of the story where they go, leading to something more organic and satisfying than we might expect. I hope it's not another eight years until Hunt's next film. Full Review

3 stars out of 4 -- And near the end, it's affecting without seeming to try to hard to be affecting. A lot of this has to do with the way Hunt invests ordinary words with strong emotion by having the characters deliver them in an offhand way.

As an instructional movie on the sport, "Ride" offers some useful tips, but beyond that, it feels like a slightly bizarre vanity project. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- While the subject matter in Ride is a bit rote, the performances and zing-a-minute dialogue keep this low budget picture above water. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/5 -- For a film whose lead character makes a hobby of worrying about weak plots and clichéd endings, Ride pulls out all the stops to follow formula. Full Review
Eye for Film
Aug 24, 2015
Rating: 3/5 -- As a screenwriter, [Hunt] can be a bit obvious: It's the kind of film in which the son addresses his mother by her first name. Full Review
Arizona Republic
May 8, 2015
Rating: 3.5/5 -- The film has a sun drenched, appealing California-ness and Hunt has that perpetually sunny bright look that helps soften her character's hard edges; the sun and light seem to erase the Manhattan publishing executive persona and she relaxes. Full Review
