FAB UK Review:
While not quite laugh out loud funny, Drive Away Dolls is full of cute bits and pieces with cameos from big stars (Damon! Pascal!) and a short running time.
Qualley really holds the film together as very sexually active ring leader Jamie who brings along Marian (Geraldine Viswanathan – who gets buried in this film full of strong characters ) for their road trip. The plot is very tongue in cheek and not to be taken seriously, while the characters and acting are very exaggerated. But there’s no denying that all eyes are on Qualley – she’s fantastic. And as the girls encounter one adventure to the next – it’s all in the name of laughs, adventure, and a very short movie – 84 minutes.
Drive Away Dolls is a fun ride!
