Concrete Kids

So here we have a film about two very uninteresting young kids who can't skateboard very well trying to get across the city. Each scene is more uneventful than the last. A bit of skateboarding where they land about ten percent of their tricks. Random encounters with people that don't amount to anything. A thoroughly bland soundtrack, which considering the skate culture is very confusing. Then they walk around and take a short bus ride and walk around some more. Cheap little scenes attempting to add some drama never amounts to anything. The mother of one of the kids is very pretty but sadly we don't get to see much of her. A lot of it didn't make sense, would never happen, or both. The reviews here are utter nonsense. One of the kids could sort of act. The other was hopeless. This movie could have been something special but ended up being nothing but putrid dullness. Watch Wassup Rockers for a great story, good acting from an otherwise unknown cast, and an excellent soundtrack that will continually have you bumping up the volume.
