Critics Consensus

The appealing odd-couple chemistry between Margaret Qualley and Geraldine Viswanathan helps Drive-Away Dolls power past its overly familiar screenplay and erratic execution.

Audience Says

Drive-Away Dolls has some laughs, but they're too few and far between to keep most viewers entertained during the meandering stretches that make up the rest of the movie.

Drive Away Dolls gets some mileage out of trying to subvert expectations.

It's a mixed-bag of some very familiar stuff... Like a watered-down "Greatest Hits" collection.

Terrible... This is the least fun I've had with a Coen associated-movie since Burn After Reading.

Along with similar beats we have seen before from both the Coens, along with very random psychedelic moments that only sort of make sense at the end, Ethan Coen’s film feels familiar but doesn’t quite hit the right notes.

Drive-Away Dolls wants to be the great American lesbian road picture. It almost gets there.

Rated: B-

The film's biggest flaw is its lack of relatable or compelling characters. Much of the runtime is spent on the girls' road trip banter, which had potential but ultimately falls flat.

Rated: 2.5/5

I thought it was okay. It was a little bit boring, but not terrible. It's a bummer that most of the negative reviews are purely based on homophobia. Also, for having such a prominent part on the movie poster, you'd think Pedro Pascal would have been in it more for more than 5 minutes. That was the biggest bummer for me.

Queer camp comedy. They should have had better trailers to showcase the vibe and actual genre.

Just horrible. Utterly no humor. The attempts at humor were so lame it made you cringe. And typically homophobic--it had like a 1990 attitude toward lesbianism like isn't it funny to have trash talking lesbians having orgies and being obsessed with dildos and eating each other out. Utterly humorless.
