"College Road Trip" didn't offer me anything that I thought it might have. It is pretty standard Disney fare, but it's very disappointing how little insight Disney puts into their movies. This is neither an exploration of a father-daughter relationship, nor is it a college-level comedy, nor is it an examination into a young woman as she tries to figure out how to pick the right college for her. This movie could have been any or all of the above, but it's none of it.
All it is, is a very low-level family comedy. It's slapstick comedy done for no audience that I could think of and done way over-the-top that it's just painful. All of the jokes have been done before in pretty much every Disney or family comedy and wouldn't be funny to anybody nearing college age, well actually, that sentence should just finish with that it wouldn't be funny to anybody. Period.
There is no audience for this corny and stale Disney comedy. "College Road Trip" doesn't offer anything real or tangible about college, or travelling on any kind of road, or about taking any kind of trip.
