Summary: funny movie with good lessons
Review: this movie is funny (at times hillarious) in a crude, "dude" type of way, but not at all in a mean spirited or overly offensve way. It's a sports/road trip movie with some nods to MTV Jackass and skating, but does have some positive qualities, mostly the underlying themes which are "commentaries" on the world according to guys.

..a few lessons on how to meet girls, how to have friends, keeping a sense of humor, sticking with your freinds, and how to stay focused on your goals, even when you literally smell like dookie. Has some commentary about how many guys feel-even if you have great talent, you'll feel like you're ignored by society until that miraculous day when you're "sponsored" and suddenly respected by everyone for the talent you've had all along
-I think every guy can relate to this theme, whether a 18 year old skater or a 30 year old office worker-
This is a movie, in some ways, about being a guy

Despite the bathroom humor here and there, I still recommend this movie for the positive underlying themes and the skate scenes, which are cool

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Get out of the pool.
Review: This movie is hard to stomach. The best part of the movie comes from the sporadic insertion of skating sequences. The skaters are skilled and a pleasure to watch, but this does not make a good movie. The humor in the movie is sophomoric at best and never really produces a good laugh. I felt that my time was wasted by sitting in front of this drivel for 104 minutes. Avoid this loser of a movie.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Waste of Time
Review: This movie is horrible. Why anyone put money behind a script like this is terrible. What did the people say to the money marks who funded this?.."Skating is popular, they will tune into to see the skate tricks"...terrible.

Movie is a 100 minutes, and about 30 minutes of it is Skating trick montoge.

When a movie needs to have quest appearencecs of that guy Bam from "JackAss" you know the movie is in trouble.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a good time
Review: This movie is just all around made for a good time. Its not an oscar winning movie but they werent going for that in the first place. Its hard to sit through this whole movie and not laugh. Mike Vogel and Adam Brodys futures are both looking big.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classic
Review: This movie was awesome. When I saw the previews i thought it was going to completely stink but it was HILARIOUS. Kind of a mindless teen movie but still great. Tons of hot guys and girls for all of you shallow people.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST MOVIE!!
Review: This movie was SO awesome!! The skate scenes were really cool. Adam Brody, Mike Vogel, and Vince Vieluf! BEST PEOPLE EVER! ok, well, i'm not a good reviewer so. later!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Ha ha! Great? Yeah right!
Review: This movie was straight jacked. I won't even lie, I only went to go see it because Bam Margera was in it, and I thought Ehren from Jackass was going to have something to do with the production of the movie. If you're not a pre-teen or head over heels in love w/ Bam Margera, then this movie is not for you. The stunts and 'funniness' was PREDICTABLE. The 'funny lines' I didn't even find them funny, but the 10 year old sitting next to me seem to crack up and die laughing. The only thing I can say good about this movie, is the appearences, they have a lot of nice special appearences. One would be skater, Mike V., Preston from Jackass, and the Swedish band Blindside. But, if you're looking for a GOOD laugh, buy Haggard or some of the cKy stuff.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The worst "cash-in on the cool new scene" flick ever...
Review: To give this movie more than 1 star is to give corporate America your soul. This movie was made because skateboarding is all of the sudden THE thing. The cameos are somewhat cool, but under no circumstances should cameos carry a movie. (...)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ouch.
Review: Wow, this movie sucked. I adore Adam Brody, and one of my friends had told me that this movie was "stupid-funny" and that I would like it. I rented it from Hollywood Video and then watched it.

This movie has no plotline. It is not even funny at all. The characters are facetless, stupid, annoying, and unrealistic. It is 100% obvious that stuntmen do all of the tricks. It just shows how kids who do have the slightest potential in life can waste it easily (Adam Brody decides not to go to college and instead goes on tour with a pro skateboarder.). The movie also is centered around a guy who is sort of like Benny-in-the-Sandlot.

The two side characters (the one with glasses and the one who never changes his shirt) also make huge changes in the movie that are very unrealistic. It also supports the idea that you can easily slide through life without doing any work.

The only movie that I can think of that can really pull off the stupid-funny idea and the no plotline idea is Napoleon Dynamite.
