Overall Good

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2013)

"Lords of Dogtown" was a really great movie, it did a good job of telling the story of the Z-Boys and keeping the viewer interested in the movie. The acting was great and Heath Ledger was a good addition. As the movie progressed it got somewhat dry at portions, but picked back up. It was visually pleasing with great angles, and the whole look and demeanor of the characters really represented the movement of the time period. Overall I recommend this movie if you are a fan of skateboarding or biographical movies about popular culture figures. I rated 6 out of 10 just for the reason that there are portions of the movie that become slightly less interesting. Tony Hawk was a funny addition considering what he does. - Christian J.
