Movie Review by Zara January 30th, 2007

Not what I had expected
When I went to see this movie in the theaters when it was released, I assumed it was a story about a skate boarder. I really didn't look deeper into the movie because I just liked (as a skateboarder myself) the idea of watching Christian Slater with frosted tips surf the pavement.
However, the movie features much more than just skateboarding. In fact, that's not really all that important to the story of a young guy whose adopted Korean brother (um, yeah... right) gets wrapped up in a unscrupulous business and ends up dead. Slater then spends the rest of the movie trying to figure out what really happened.
It's not a great thriller and it's too slow and bland for the average teen girl to just spend the 90+ minutes drooling over Slater. Trust me... I found that out the hard way.
