The good old days

Rating: 10/10 (21 February 2013)

I loved this movie. It reminded so much when I grew up then. Skateboarding was the "in" thing. A lot of kids in my neighborhood did it. We would skate the biggest hill on our side of town and it was a challenge to make it all the way down. The music in this movie sets the tone for emotion. I thought Emile Hirsch was very good as Jay Adams in this film as the "bad boy" of the group. I think if you grew up in this time when skateboarding was becoming popular you would relate to it better. This movie was put together quite well and was very entertaining. This is definitely a good watch at least one time. I love the part of the film where they skate all the empty pools. How fun that would have been!
