"Joyride (1977)" stands as a crucial early work in Joseph Ruben's filmography, offering a raw, unvarnished look at youthful desperation that clearly foreshadows his later mastery of the suspense genre. The film plunges audiences into the harrowing journey of two young lovers, played by Desi Arnaz Jr. and Melanie Griffith, whose romantic road trip takes a dark turn when financial woes push them towards increasingly dangerous criminal acts. It establishes Ruben's keen eye for depicting ordinary people thrust into extraordinary, often perilous, circumstances, a hallmark of his best work. Even in this nascent stage of his career, Ruben demonstrates his signature ability to craft gripping narratives around moral compromise and the escalating consequences of poor choices. *Joyride*'s strength lies in its gritty realism and the palpable tension he builds around the protagonists' downward spiral, themes Ruben would brilliantly explore in later acclaimed thrillers like *The Stepfather* and *Sleeping with the Enemy*. As a testament to the foundational elements of his distinguished directorial style, *Joyride* is an essential entry on any "Best Joseph Ruben Movies" list, showcasing the nascent talent that would define his career.
