TL;DR Summary

The film "Joy Ride," directed by Adele Lim, is facing criticism from white male critics who compare it to "Bridesmaids" and judge it based on white sensibilities. The film, about four young Asian Americans on a journey across China and Korea, is being unfairly reduced to a Bridesmaids lookalike, ignoring its unique perspective and focus on Asian American experiences. The drama in the film, centered around Audrey's struggles as an adopted child of white parents, is crucial to its narrative. The film challenges the notion that Asian American stories should be judged by white standards and highlights the need for diverse perspectives in cinema.
