MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Johannesnk This was a really great movie with a very mystic and atmospheric feel to it. The best part is undoubtedly the parts with Riley Whitelum. He's an fantastic actor. His beard is unparalleled and his muscles and the acting is from another world. It's fantastic too see how such a young soul became what he is today. Today he's a real successful sailor on the seven seas and this little skater movie will show you secrets about Riley Whitelum that you would have never thought of him. This movie is his source of eminence.Riley Whitelum is every girls wet fantasy, and this hereby movie is the absolute proof of it!
ptb-8 As with other recent 'youth' movies created by ill informed 40 year old men in Australia: WOLF CREEK, THUNDERSTRUCK, GARAGE DAYS and the truly disgraceful SAMPLE PEOPLE, this film cutely titled DECK DOGZ also suffers from the same major flaw: there isn't ten teenagers anywhere who would pay the $10 it costs for that age group to see it in a cinema. And why would they. If you saw the trailer you would groan. Compiled with antisocial fool characters who have stupid names and contrived clothes like some shopping list of wacky ideas thought up by drunk middle aged skate shop owners late one Friday night at a Chinese restaurant, DECK DOGZ is apparently supposed to appeal to 10-16 year old boys who go to multiplex cinemas. Well they do but not to this: they go to multi million dollar American CGI extravaganzas that cost the same ticket price. DECK DOGZ looks exactly like what it is: the older generation's idea of what teens do....which is enough to make any 10-16 year old boy avoid at all costs.. It looks contrived and it is - and kids see right through it. As a result it dies in ten seconds at the box office and someone is apparently shocked. As with gun / chase films, these pix are made better by the Yanks and are an embarrassment when fashioned into some local ripoff. Like those films mentioned above, DECK DOGZ smacks of misinformed opportunism and is unable to compete in the very market for which it was intended. Is is better than any similar imported film? No. And that simply is why kids avoid it. And that is why it should have not been made in the first place. The makers of this film should have known that if they had bothered to do any market research. They obviously didn't and this is the result: box office failure, a waste of resources and irritation. A lesson still not yet learned by the used car salesmen who try make exploitative teen films in Australia. Sam Katzmen, they ain't. Cormans either. Groan.
Nikki (dammit_blink182) Dudes.. I'm not a skater or anything, but i definitely dig them..this movie does make skaters look bad, cause of the behavior of the three try-hards in this movie.. this is definitely a funny movie, but i don't recommend you see it, unless you wanna see some try-hard-skaters going around skating..its actually really funny, cause I've started a crew now called the 'TTH (Total Try Hard) Deck Dogz', with a good friend of mine cause we were so baffled by this movie..This is so funny, cause you see the try-hard-skater Asian guy, Blue Flame, getting chicks at random party's, and a guy like him would not ever have this happen ha ha..oh and to people reading this, we need other people who can skate, or wanna learn to skate (in Sydney, northern beaches) to join our crew.. our job is to get drunk, and skate around!!... so please anyone interested, e-mail me on [email protected], or I'm me on Nikzaaussie... so yeah PLEASE!!!!!!
jonnyng9 This type of movie was new to me, and yet i was eager to watch it. It's about 3 Skateboarding, law-breaking punks; named SPASM, POKER and BLUE FLAME. Together they call themselves the "DECK DOGZ"............One day, practicing their new move which includes a "heel-flip with a dark side", they're caught by the police for tress-passing and vandalising. If you think that's bad, not listening in Maths class, and paying attention to your skateboard only, is worse. Not only do all the three skate punks find themselves EXPELLED from school, but with SPASM's Skateboard confiscated by the principle. POKER AND BLUE FLAME, go on a midnight robbery into the school to steal back the skateboard, not knowing that they accidentally BURNT DOWN THE SCHOOL! With their already BAD REPUTATION and Cops behind their backs, the three are on a skate trip to the East, where TONY HAWKS IS HOSTING THE BEACH BOWL!!! They go through a lot of obstacles along the way to get to their destination, and trying to become a PRO-Skater and MAKING THEIR OWN REALITY.
