With our friends, we are the dumbest fools of the world!
The First Ride is fast, chaotic, and genuinely funny.
The background is dark. But the storytelling is pure comedy.
The movie opens with Cha Eun Woo’s narration: “It’s a sad story."
Well, it is. But maybe not. That line is sad, but his tone isnt. So I obviously assume it's a straight-up light comedy. The line actually is a premonition for the whole movie vibe, which will present you with absurd tragedies in a weird and fun comedic way. And what follows is wild, loud, and hilarious.
This is exactly my kind of genre. I vibed with it from the first minute.
Yes, the reality behind it is heartbreaking. Mental illness is not a joke. Trauma is not funny. But the way the film is shot makes everything feel sharp and alive. The editing is quick. The camera work is restless. Almost no second is wasted.
The technical execution deserves praise.
The pacing is tight. The transitions are smooth. The background score pushes the chaos forward. The dialogues land well. The expressions are exaggerated in the best way. The movie lets me forget myself for a moment and join them in the chaos. To be part of their journey, and to reminisce abiut my friends and childhood.
More than the first half is unapologetically hilarious. It is loud, unpredictable, and full of energy. From Yeon Min’s birth to his journey of bonding with the “fools,” every moment feels spontaneous. The gang dynamic is crazy but lovable. I laughed constantly for two hours.
Later than the midpoint, during one of their fights, I started to sense something deeper. That’s when I realized the hidden truth behind Yeon Min’s doll. From that moment, the movie changed for me. It was no longer just comedy. It became a more than just a story about friendship, Travel and absurd humor.
And towards the end? I cried buckets.
The cast has done an abosultely amazing job.
After watching this, everything else feels a little dull.
If you’re alive and love chaotic storytelling with heart, there’s no reason to skip this one.
