GamerTab That was an excellent one.

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

smcke a fun movie great for the family but with some really rad skate scenes actually kinda exciting to watch so weird it was good the special effects were pretty shoddy but wat can u expect its a kids movie i actually was beginning to hate the main antagonist & was rooting for sammy you can tell that the vert scenes are obvously done by a more expirenced skater,any way give it a watch but id recommend renting it first that way you wont be wasting any money,still in my opinion it was agreat movie but this is coming from a kid the same age as the character reminds me of when i first went to a skate park a bad experience

pjmetz-1 Let me start off by commenting on the poster and cover art for this movie. The publicity photo shows Sammy, our protagonist, on his magic skateboard, holding a chihuaua, flying over Mount Rushmore. Now let me say that neither Mount Rushmore or chihuauas are anywhere close to this movie; that's how awesome it is. Sammy's father died when he was very young, and therefore it is up to Sammy to be the man of the house. Unfortunately for Sammy, all he wants to do is play what appears to be the most spectacular video game anyone has ever seen. He has a rough time because Kimmy Gibler and Elliot's mom are always bringing him down, and his best fried kamikazees some older kids with her bike. A strange old man lures Sammy into a warehouse with promises of skateboards, but instead gives him a box of junk. The winner of the Kurt Russell lookalike contest shows up and tells Sammy that he's an amazing skateboarder, but Sammy already knew that because his skateboard told him. Of course, Sammy wins the skateboard competition, not because his skateboard can fly, but because he believes in himself. He then realizes that he is in love with his best friend Mickey. It is also noteworthy to mention that the antagonist's rattail is a folicle miracle.

bob the moo It's been years since the Curtis family lost their husband and father Raymond in a flying accident as part of his job as a pilot. His son, Sammy, misses him and works on model planes with his friend Mickey until, that is, he sees some boys on a skateboard and gets himself a new hobby. After hurting himself he is ready to give up when he gets a mysterious package from a man called Zeno – a skateboard with mysterious powers. Sammy enters a skateboard contest using the power of the board; meanwhile his mother struggles to pay the mortgage and faces losing the house.Not having seen the original Skateboard Kid film I'm not sure if there is a connection between the two or if they are two pretty separate stories doing basically the same thing. Anyway, the plot here sees Sammy getting a board that talks like KITT from a man who could not possibly be relating in any way to his dead father. Needless to say, with the house on the line and big money available for the winner of a skateboarding contest, Sammy steps up – although I won't spoiling it by saying whether or not he wins or learns to find his inner strength! I don't want to judge this by adult standards but, in the same regard, I don't believe that a kids film can be cr*p just because it is aimed at kids. Sadly that is the case here, the film seems to be entirely based on the skateboarding craze and the rest of the plot has been hacked off from a million other films – it really is that generic!The plot is dumb and it knows it – it never knows when to stop with an idea and to keep good taste, instead it adds bad idea to bad idea and just gets increasingly stupid. This is aimed too high for young children and I doubt very much if 7-11 year olds would accept this as their entertainment for the evening. Baring in mind that this was made in the mid 1990's, the effects are hilariously bad – I know the budget must not have been much but surely it could do better than this rubbish. The skateboarding action is pretty average as well, there are few good moves and most of it is basic stuff. The funniest thing in the film is Sammy skateboarding – his body double is at least 20 and must be about a foot and a half taller than him, the change over between the two is obvious and is so badly handled as to be hilarious.On top of that, the acting is roundly bad. The kids are all cute 'gee wiz, mom' style performances are felt like nails being dragged over a board for most of the time. Wallace-Stone is suited to this type of film and she is as wholesome and non-sexual as she often is. Support is OK from Davidson but mostly the cast are all pretty poor. Director Stevens gives himself a role and all I can say is that I hope he doesn't still have his hair like that. In fairness it was nice to see him, he has had a very varied career considering that this is on his CV!.Overall this is a bad film with little to recommend in it. The production values are very low, giving rise to many clunky effects and share lazy errors, the acting is poor even for a kids movie and the story is corny and obvious from the very start. I know this is a kids movie but that does not excuse it being bad. This was aimed at the older kid market of preteens – if you tried to get the 10 year olds I know to watch this rubbish it would spark a riot.

Pepper Anne It's a kid's movie I know. So if it's corny and junk like that, I shouldn't get all fussy about it 'cause it's just meant to entertain some kids, right? I think that even for little kids, this movie is far too cheesy.The Skateboard Kid is this little kid who sends away for a skateboard. It turns out to be a magic skateboard, one that let's him fly. He's able to show up the neighborhood gang of skating big shots--kids who are just a little older than him. The skateboard let's him do things that he couldn't do by himself. So, even though he is a novice, he is able to accomplish things that only the pro's could do. This leads to an opportunity to compete. And, if you know corny kids movie, you know that even though some magic or some kind of special mentor helped him to get to one point, it would be up to him to get the rest of the way. Except, that might be plausible if the kid was actually doing tricks that would seem fitting for his expertise, even if it was a little m more than you would assume could be done. Here, in this balogna movie, this kid starts out on some homemade stick and attempt to jump a quarter pipe launch ramp. Some people can't even balance themselves on a regular board, nevermind a piece of chopped up lumber with no kicktails. Then, when he gets the magic board, Stardust, it allows him to do pro-material, tearing up half-pipes and everything. And, at the end, when the Stardust board doesn't work anymore, and he's back to a regular board, he doesn't just have confidence to skate well in front of the older, more aggressive kids. No way, now he can skate just like a pro. Maybe the movie should've been entitled--how to skate like a pro without ever really trying. It's hard to fish out that building-character premise that is so cliche of most kids movies due to such an implausible feat. I know it's supposed to be about a magic skateboard and all of that, but for crying out loud. Aside from that point that annoyed me most about this movie, I guess the story and acting are no more corny than most other kids movies. The kids stink it up a little bit, especially the bully kid. Overall, I'd say that this movie is just cheese city.
