Entertainment Reviews:
Hunt is past the breakers and alone on her own wave; as a filmmaker, she's lost sight of the shore.

Globe and Mail
[Hunt is] a fine comic actress with crack timing and seemingly effortless access to big emotions...
Hollywood Reporter
This is suitably engaging coming-of-middle-age material, but at nearly every turn, Hunt shines in one discipline while leaving much to be desired in another.

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

Rating: 3/5 --
The wonky narrative is definitely a problem - Hunt takes too long to get us to sympathize with the obsessed Jackie - but by then, we really want her to catch that wave.

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.

Rating: C+ --
Isn't unpleasant, but it does end up feeling synthetic--the work of a filmmaker who's simply trying too hard.

Product Description:
An overbearing mother (Helen Hunt) travels cross-country to be with her son (Brenton Thwaites) after he drops out of college to become a surfer. She meets a surf instructor (Luke Wilson) who convinces her to try to accept her son's wishes and to allow him to follow his dreams. This coming-of-age story was written and directed by Hunt.
