Summary: Can you say LAME?
Review:

This movie bad. There are no other ways to describe it. It is one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time.

Relying on guest appearances from the likes of Bam Margera and Mike Valley to pull in the viewers, it fails to grasp any concept of actual reality.

The script is horrible, and the jokes make you feel terribly embarrassed for whoever was stupid enough to write them. Did they want this film to be a flop? It seems like it...

I wouldn't recommend this movie to ANYBODY at all... the scenes are so badly edited that the whole thing is a complete waste of film and money. Not to mention actors talents.

With sarky one liners and stereo typical characters that lack depth and emotion, this movie becomes something that even 10 year olds wouldn't like.

So don't waste your money. Go buy a DVD that is actually worth it.

Summary: IS THIS A COMEDY?
Review: Cameos by Randy Quaid and Bobcat Goldthwaite and a song by The Donnas, don't really help GRIND (Warner Home Video). Four Chicago dudes travel across the country to be part of world professional skateboarding. The alleged humor is crude and forced. And there's not much of the pure joy of ordinary skateboarding. One good thing: there's no widescreen edition, so there's less bad movie in the frame. I gave it two stars because (1) it's in focus and (2) it's in color.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Skateboarding Movie...
Review: Grind is a movie that most will hate. I only know a few people who love this movie and I am included--I love it! It is a cult classic and it has its following but many will not like it because although it has a plot (to get to skate in a completion) it is not a bold face one. On their way to get to their dream they encounter many hilarious moments. This movie is heavily plotted around skateboarding and if you are not a fan you probably will not like this movie. It is also is moved along with its music which gets you in the mood for skateboarding.

Most people who watch this for the Adam Brody they see on The O.C will get the same humor but probably will not like this movie...so watch this movie if you like skateboarding...that is my opinion-otherwise if you are looking for a plot that is real in-depth don't look for this movie!


Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Grind
Review: Grind is the coolest movie ever!!! It's about 3 guys who follow this pro skater so they can get a shot at going pro. It is hilarious. Bam Margera makes a few apperences in this movie. If you are a skater this movie is for you!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome
Review: Grind is the most awesome movie ever!!! I can't stop thinking about all the hilarious things in there. Plus the fact that ALMOST everyone in it is hot, except that disgusting guy with the wierd lips. But everyone who is in to skating or just likes skating should totally buy this movie; It's an essential!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great
Review: Honestly, I have just recently gotten into skating and this movie was so good. The cast is great and they are a lot of camios like BAM MARGERA, who may I say is hot. But anyway back to the cast. They mesh really well together. Im not saying that there isnt any bad parts (aka the whole clown college scene) but the movie has a lot of laughs and I cant wait to see it on dvd.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Hollywood Trash
Review: I am a skateboarder. My friends are all skateboarders. Skateboarding is something I do for fun. I thought maybe Hollywood had nailed the skateboard image this time. I was way off.
This movie portrays the side of skateboarding that never actually existed. We dont all actually say the word 'X-treme' in every single sentence. Skateboarding is not about getting sponsored and making money. Skating is really about having fun and meeting friends. I didnt start skating on my little toys'r'us board hoping for fame and fortune. I just wanted fun. Please dont see this movie, because skateboarding should have nothing to do with Hollywood.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: really good
Review: i don't even LIKE skating and yet i loved the movie. maybe its because Adam Brody was in it. that's the only reason i went out and rented it. but since i enjoyed the movie so much i bought it. It's funny and i get to stare at adam brody the whole time =)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible
Review: I don't think it's humanly possible to name everything wrong wth this movie in under 1,000 qords, but here's the WORST parts:

-Poor Acting :
A bunch of no-name actors that have no enthusiasm and sound like they're reading lines, if that sounds good to you then go sit in the middle of the road. Dis-Honorable Mention includes the guy from Rat Race (He acted better in that movie when he barely ever talked), and the kid from the OC, who sounds like an OVER-OVER-ENTHUSASTIC Jason Biggs.

-No plot :
I never really understood what the premise was. One day, the protagonist decides to take his friend's van and go get famous and sponsored. Then, he tries to get his own company going, then he tries to win a girl over, THEN he tries to get sponsored again. I'm sure the ending was pretty bad, but I can't honestly tell you how bad because I walked out (It didn't matter, I had already figured out how it would end some 30mins before it did, IT'S THAT PREDICATABLE) So I guess the real plot line is : Hey, Skateboarding is popular, so let's make a quick, cheap movie to get millions of dollars off of!

-Celebrity Hype/Ad-fest
There were plenty of famous celebreties scattered across this movie like Bam Margera, Jason "Weeman" Acuna, Preston Lacy, Tom Green, and the Swedish band "Blindside". But it wouldn't matter how well they acted (And some of them were okay, like Tom Green), because most of them were in the movie for less than 10 minutes.
Director Casey La Scala (Who also did laughably bad, What a Girl wants with Amanda Bynes) must really be rolling in money after THE BILLIONS UPON BILLIONS OF ADS IN THE MOVIE. Ads for: Birdhouse,Etnies,Toy Machine,Billabong,Adio,Element,Vans,Hook-Ups,Blind,Zero,Baker,Circa,O'Neill,Dakine,Tensor,Krux,Destructo, and many, many more.
