Yeah Right!

Only reason I did not give this film a 10 was due to some of the language and some of the "other scenes" other then that all the skate stunts were grade A! I have watched it over a dozen time with my 2 year old. One of his (2 year old) favorite parts is when babel (sp?) is skating the strip of benches in from of the stores and breaks the glass on the store front...why they left that in there...who knows! Do they have any other films? I'm not sure how I ended up even renting this film, but I'm glad I did. Back in the day I used to skate, but I was never this good. I think I am going to go buy a board and learn a few new tricks. These guys make every kick flip look SO EASY. I had mixed feeling about the crash shots, but that just keeping it real. FL Bill

this movie has brilliant camera work, great skaters, and an amazing soundtrack. It goes past the normal boundaries of skateboarding videos and finds art in the sport. The slow-motion work floored me. Its been done before in other videos,but it was so smooth here. Another really cool thing was the use of the green boards and ramps. Seeing a skater ollie over a highway for the first time was unbelievable. Its too bad that this movie was not released in theaters, it is really that good.

I recommend this movie to all skateboarders and also to anyone looking for something that is fun to watch. Spike Jonze is a genius.

This film is amazing! Eric gave yet another amazing performance in this movie.

Everyone in this movie has got skills--this movie is a perfect combo. If I were you, I would get "Yeah Right!" This movie is worth buying. Girl has done it, again! How they do it, I don't know. But, I love to be surprised.

Great Job!

Spike Jonze comes in to direct yet another Girl video. He truly shines with his over the top skits. Almost all of the Girl riders make an appearance, except for Guy Mariano who might as well stay at home and live off of board royalties like the leech that he is. Best part is a toss up here between McCrank, Koston, Carroll, and Marc Johnson. Any one of the four could take it, but I'm leaning towards Koston/Johnson due to the level of innovation from both. A great soundtrack goes a long way towards making a video good or bad, and this video does not disappoint. Everything from Bowie, to a quick Public Enemy cameo (along with Owen Wilson). Marc Johnson takes the award for funniest skit, it ties in with his first Chocolate board graphic, and it's hilarious.

This video is different from others released recently in that it's not all hammers and rails and whatnot. While there are a fair amount of rail tricks in this video, a lot of the focus is on tech tricks, something not seen much in this heyday of rail ams. This video is a breath of fresh air.

On a downside, as I previously mentioned, Guy Mariano has ONE trick. One. He last appeared in a video 4 years ago, with the Chocolate tour. He had 4 years to film for this video, and get got one trick. The footage looks old too. There's absolutely no excuse for him not having a full part. Anyone who has seen his part in Mouse will see this as the biggest disappointment of the video. Among other disappointments, Rick Howard doesn't have a full part either, but has a fair amount of footage.

The skits in this video surpass the skits in Mouse tenfold. They are hilarious. Once you see the no-board skit, you won't be able to stop laughing. They didn't photoshop the boards out, they green-screened them out. Hence the bucket of green boards on the back of the tape box. Also watch for tricks in the video with green/blue screened kicker ramps. Its funny the first few times, and then you sorta start wishing that they hadn't done it.

Overall, I'd say this is a 9/10. It would get the extra star if Mariano had a full part, or even a few more tricks. (no Sheffey footage either, but he was in jail)

This is one of my favorite skate videos ever! I love how Owen Wilson was in this video! And also R. I. P. Keenan Milton. He will always be remembered as the greatest skater in history. Keenan Forever!
