Very good attempt

Rating: 9/10 (19 September 2005)

OK I'm a skateboarder and have been researching Z-boys as a hobbie for a while now, i expected to come out of the cinema feeling sick. I was wrong. I came out that cinema feeling that i could be happy with what Hollywood hasn't trashed for instance i expected to see the actors pulling off super moves and be the best of friends forever and hold hands (you know the typical Hollywood glamorisation) but instead i was treated to almost the real Zephyr boys there characters at least doing there original moves and just generally being portrayed to a good standard. I will say though you can definitely see it was written by Stacie Paralta he gets quite a good lime-light in this. Somethings were exaggerated somethings were left out or added but generally i could have expected a lot worse from Hollywood. This film gets my vote.
