pleasantly surprised.

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2005)

I went to this movie because i told a friend i would treat him to the movie of his choice, being an avid skater he chose this one. I walked in, not expecting much, but i was completely blown away. So blown away in fact, that i actually went out and bought the Dogtown and zboys DVD documentary. i thought the actors were all perfectly cast, and none of them, not even the big names like heath ledger, individually stole the show, they created the perfect story. it dives into family, and friendship while not losing sight of what it was all about, the skateboarding. When it ended i felt as if i had just sat down. i loved every bit of it, the story, the acting, the music... it was well worth the $8.55. I would definitely go see it again, no question, and i can't wait for the DVD!
